    Added the LED bed light kit from Matt that I purchased last year and finally decided to go for it!

    Not bad for being a beginner, instructions were on point!

    Looking forward for more projects!

    I found a bedslide on craigslist that I was a pretty good deal, now I need to order the replacement hardware to get it mounted in the truck.

    One of the most important steps in painting something is to make sure the surface is thoroughly cleaned. Tons of things will effect how the paint (plastidep) will bond to the surface.

    I've got sliders to prime and paint (bedliner) so of course it's been pouring the last few days. Hopefully it will be sunny this weekend so I can slap these badboys on.

    Thanks, I love 'em too. I got exactly 2 1/2" up front with OME 885 coils and a 1/4" DS spacer and surprisingly 2 full inches in the back with a 3 leaf AAL with the overload removed. Curious to see how and if it settles over time.

    You might be surprised at how much they settle. My 5100s with 887s in front settled from 4" to 3" and the dakars in back from 5" to 4".

    Derping is easy! Just take your time to put plenty of coats on. I'm making a vid on it soon.

    Looks great!

    Would you mind giving us a run down on which switch positions correspond to which lights being on?

    Also, have you had a chance to evaluate how the light output at night compares to the stock headlights?

    Looks like a color-matched grille surround from the factory and not plastidip.
