    After recently adding a lift and new wheels and tires, I've noticed mud/snow stuck to the front of the rear wheel wells. Decided to ditch the OEM flaps and try these out, it's a flap and flare in one. I don't want to go full old man on the flare part, but I'm going to try to get them out there for some added protection. As soon as this arctic weather breaks I'll get them on and get some pics after install.

    Recently installed a Prinsu roof rack and added a Plano box, and recovery boards. And finally had a good day to wash it.

    I put some self-adhered gasket material all around the tailgate and quickly discovered the main leak was from the topper. Lesson= leave a few gaps in the tailgate gasket so the bed can drain.

    I haven't really gone over any bumpy areas yet, but they do seem smoother. Only time will tell!

I’m going to use it for my LED whip for desert trips! Getting a custom bracket made for the whip. Once I have that installed I’ll post pics of it on. Stoked!!

    No my truck has a leveling kit on the front. Sorry I can't help you out, but I'm sure there's others on here with factory suspension setup that could help you out.

    Can anyone measure their front stock height for @POOLGUY?

    Please and thank you!

    Installed some interior LEDs acquired from my TWSS @Crash721. They're bright. While I was taking the picture: a ship ran aground; a plane landed down the street; jets scrambled per NORAD orders; a deer sat down in the truck and just stared. Definite game-changer.

    Yeah I agree but at the top of the tailgate, that's where water drips in so that's where the water is coming in & my battle is right now
