    How is the fit with the brackets? Is everything a direct fit using them? I am looking at these too as opposed to having a stealth bar installed.

    Silly question, but are you sure they actually topped the fluid off? I did mine myself, not too difficult with procedures off the internet. The battery disconnect is an old standard for electronic controlled vehicles. Been doing it for years on Fords after replacing ignition parts. Dumps all the old codes in the ECU and gives the rig a "fresh start". I've got about 3300 miles on mine now, and it was definitely a big difference in shifting. If you do check it yourself, do yourself a favor and remove the top plug where you add the fluid. I screwed up and waited until it was time to add fluid and ended up getting burned a couple of times on the exhaust. The split on the exhaust pipes happens right under the transmission.

    I can't say for certain that they did it but I have a piece of paper stating they did, if they didn't then I'm sure the dealership would be in some serious trouble for claiming work they didn't do.

    Ok great! The police are pretty vigilant here about tinting, we can't even tint the drivers and passengers side windows - only the windows behind your shoulders. I've heard of stories of cops taking an exacto knife and cutting the film to make sure you take it off, along with the fine they give you!

    So I don't add any tint, and I haven't ever felt the need to up here!

    Come on guys, really? Yes I got them in 6x5.5, that's just a pic for reference.

    Custom powdercoat. Not a fan of the silver/blue. Hope to have it match my King shocks.

    Seconded. I got a pretty nasty burn on the back of my hand because my mechanix gloves were on the driver seat and I was worried about getting it filled in time...

    Those are sweet .. exactly what model or part# are those fog lights? Like that amber look on your white truck. Let us know what you think of them after dark .. maybe a pic with just your parking/fogs on

    Here's my ride, right off the delivery truck:

    My granddaughter helped me install the NFAB tube steps on my truck, and of course had to model them for me.

    I've since added weather tech mats, stuffed the underseat cubbies with all the required offroad gear required to get a National Park Service oversand permit for Cape Cod and tonight the BakFlip G2 goes on.

    I thought that would be all I need, but since I've become a member here, I've definitely been bitten by the bug to add more toys to my Toy! It's all your fault!

    They had her all purtied up at delivery. I had to get it all dirty (not super mudded up, just dirty) before the girlfriend saw it. She was all like WTF, and I'm all like It's not a girly car!

    I would have been fine if they left the dirt on it, just peel the stickers, check the fluids and torque the nuts, we gone!
