    The Dakars are awesome. I plan to get a camper shell/RTT so I needed something that could handle that

    It seems like a lot of people remove the upper overload? Reasoning? Will you put it back on if you get the topper?

    I removed the upper overload to get less lift out of the dakars. Right now I'm sitting higher in the rear even with the upper removed. Once I get the topper and RTT I'll throw it back on to make up for the weight.

    Any pics from the front, I'm curious how narrow the tires look on the truck.

    The power loss hasn't been bad at all. I've always ran wider tires in the past, and now with a narrower tire I feel the truck handles a lot better IMO

    MPG took a big hit, but I was expecting that.

    Wow. Truck looks awesome. Any pics showing how far the tire sticks out of the wheel well? Love the width the 285/70's wasn't sure if it looked much different with the 34x10.5's...
