    Haven't updated my build thread in a while! Just ordered my bestop supertop (again) as I have been searching for a used one and gave up lol. Will update with pics! Need to get another coilover wrench and level out the truck. Gave up on that when I broke my last wrench. Have a lot of things I want to do so am gonna get the build going again here real soon!

    Changed the oil and rotated my tires today. Also replaced the OEM reverse light bulbs with leds. Bestop will be here tomorrow, will install it on Christmas Eve as I work tomorrow. Pics to come!

    What made you pick Bestop over Softopper or any other brand?

    I've had a bestop before and really liked it. The bestop has window on the sides and the rear, where as the softopper doesnt, so that's the main reason.

    I was thinking of trying some tamper proof nuts. Something that will take longer than normal to get off at least.

    Good idea. Even running a short cable lock around the awning somehow would be cool

    Ya, and with the amount that the awning would actually be used, a cable lock wouldn't be a bad idea.
