    I believe 10”. It fits snuggly into the black plastic housing in the scoop.

    Sweeeet!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: If I don't find a cheaper alternative, I'll PM you for details. At that price though I could spend the extra $50 and get a rigid industry you know. Looks bad ass though and like you said it comes with the switch and all the installation tools.

    Wow Really?? 17 inches..... that seems pretty big. Most of the ones I've seen are around the 10" mark. Well cool, thanks for checking man!

    Supposedly they also checked the transmission fluid level which I heard was complicated but they said there’s a way to put it on the diagnostic with the sensors or something and check it that way? They said it all checked out fine.

    They didn't check the fluid level. They let the computer tell them the level (which is of suspect accuracy)

    Had it made from a local sign shop. Wasn’t a lot of $$. Showed them pics of what I wanted, they bought materials, and they installed it. Total was around $175

    I just put them in yesterday and you’re right, driving into work this morning I could immediately feel the whole truck lean while turning corners. Definitely gives me a bit of relief having the there especially with my leer 100xl shell.

    I highly recommend them. Although the D-ring type tie down has to be removed they come with extra tie down points to replace it. Also received them 2 days after ordering.

    I did my lift (2017 DCSB Off Road) with Icons, adjustable in front sitting at about 2.5 to 3. Rear is new Dakar leafs plus Icon remote resi’s. Probably about 3” there too. I had no vibrations or shimmy’s at that lift height. I then did the carrier drop from Old Man Emu just to be safe but it seemed fine before. So you may be imagining it, or could just be how your truck is reacting to the lift. Drop carrier is cheap so might as well try that. New suspension always feels different than stock so it’s hard to compare. Also, not sure if you said you got it aligned. Really need to do that. And if stock tires/rim shouldn’t be an issue there. But If you changes tires or rims, could also be a balance issue

    I drive WELL above the speed limit for 20 - 30 minutes at a clip on I-95 and I have never had the thermostat needle show anything but normal without the air damn. Phooey, someone's pulling your leg. I hear more about increased wind noise than anything.

    Zero chance of it causing overheating. The function of the air dam is to direct air around the truck rather than under it, where there's turbulence. Doesn't ha e anything to do with air through the radiator.

    Lmao! It's pretty cool little subtle addition that would help light up the trails even more at the deer lease. I like subtle mods that make a big impact but aren't noticeable when not in use lol

    It was going to be a complete kit originally, but head strong did not have the front setup in stock. So, I ordered the front, and u bolt flip/ super bumps from Wheelers, and the aal/ rear shocks from head strong. All together ~1200
