    A few additions to make me feel cool.
    Hey guys I just wanted to publicly thank Bobbb for donating the camper shell bars he had to my wife's cousin. He helped a young man just getting done with high school along with his build. I know he did not do it for the accolades but he deserves it for not hesitating to give them away to a good cause. Thanks man, you are a standup guy!

    I'd be down for a July 9th trail run. Bummed I missed the run on the 4th.

    Also, maybe a mod day in September/October? I am going to be picking up parts to regear and will be cutting bedsides for a HC rear bumper if @RelentlessFab has @jberry813's bumper completed by then.

    It's jberry's fault....the HC rear bumper was much further down on my to-do list but he caught me in a moment of weakness with a deal I couldn't refuse :goingcrazy:

    Going to order wheelers 3 leaf aal on friday. Anyone have thoughts on this set up. Says 1.5 lift. I am sagging about 1/2 a inch with my tool box and rtt now. I think the install should be easyish, just not sure what leafs I take out but i assume there will some sort of instructions.

    @growyourmind86, I went with a new leaf pack over an AAL. The stock pack is prone to sag. Another bonus with a new leaf pack is increased droop over the stock pack.

    Don't take any out. Put the 3 leaf in between the overload and bottom leaf but put the overload back in. Otherwise you'll be back to bro lean.

    In a ideal situation I would like the whole new leaf pack, but I will not have the money. I know it would be ideal but I will do a 3 leaf instead of just a aal. Should be a little better from what I read.

    ok so the the new leafs go just a leaf over the one on the very bottom. I been wondering but could not find answer in my research. No real good videos on the install. One good writeup so I will use that. I think it should be easy enough. I have my car as a back up if I can not get it done in one night. I work late some days so I only get a few hours of day light.

    lol someone likes beer. I cant wait to have this done. Once this is done I can focus on getting more camping gear. My truck build and such is coming along nice. I just want to see new places. I live in a small apartment and like to get out the bitch every weekend.
