    Dustin Lynch is amazing live! My wife and I have seen him twice when he opened for Luke Bryan. Also, if you get the chance to see Randy Houser...don't pass it up!!! The best concert I have ever been to was Dustin Lynch, Randy Houser, and Luke Bryan!

    @EatSleepTacos I found these UBolts https://www.truckspring.com/product...neItemId=91718ac8-828f-4531-890f-6e8e4c1bc2ed

    I was doing some reading in a thread about the Toytec (I think that was the brand) ubolt flip. Some of the people were having problems fitting whatever size bolts came with the kit and were saying they needed 8 1/2" long bolts. I got the 9/16" and the 3 1/4" numbers from the relentless fab website. For all the bolts and a plate made by @Skell Im right at $60. Also, Tony, maybe you can start selling it as a kit. I'm sure you could get better pricing from that site than I could for the bolts.

    @fatfurious2 broke out that old worn out tape measure and said his legs are 9 1/2" long and that there is more thread. about 1" - 1 1/4" max. seems like 8 1/2" would work.

    I went with the wheeler's flip with their superbumps not an issue. But you could really go to any truck supply store like for the big rigs and get what ever u-bolts you need. They usually stock a ton of different ones. If you don't want to do the flip yet I have some extended u-bolts that will work with the factory perches and those dakars.

    Yeah. My TSB 2.0 packs are pretty pathetic.

    You’ve got both overloads in there and the AAL. Interesting b/c from what I’ve been told they are good up to 1k lbs

    How do you know both are in there? Also these are the old style Dakar’s. Not sure if that makes a difference.

    Been busy the last little bit...finally got around to replacing the fan in my master bathroom after the builder installed one took a crap. Here are some progress shots.

    Old fan housing removed.20180218_161942.jpg

    Hole enlarged and new fam housing installed.
    20180218_165713.jpg

    All buttoned up

    The new fan move more than twice as much air and is dang near silent. A big improvement over the old one!

    We saw him with Luke Bryan as well, I definitely liked Paisley's show better, it is much more enjoyable, at one point they were playing fail army videos to the song crushing it, not my favorite song at all but the video and song went so well together that I actually liked it.

    I've seen Jason Aldean's show, and it was a really good show! Just before he turn too bro lol and I saw Eric Church twice, really like that guy! His show is a little less entertaining than Aldean's but better music imo

    I like eric church and brantlet gilbert. One hell of an amen by brantley was co written by an acquaintance of mine Brian Davis. We grew up in the same town and ran with a lot of the same folks.

    If you like bluegrass/folk music (non traditional) take a listen to Leftover Salmon the banjo player is a good friend of mine. He also will play with the Joe Stickley trio another friend of mine. Leftover Salmon was the house band for After the Catch one season.

    You see the two that look flipped (the first two on the bottom of the pack) and it looks like yo have the AAL too. Maybe that they are older but when I talked to ARB direct about sending me a pack with the new design and anti squeak pads they told me how much they are rated for. Alcans sound good. Why not deavers?

    What's the old style? How do they compare to the new?

    Looks good! I always hated retrofitting a new fan into an old hole. We used to put in a fan/light/heater combo which was heavy and twice the size of the old hole. Plus the electrician I worked for only used 12/2 wire and wouldn't buy 12/3. I had to run 3 separate switch legs up to the fan, one for heat, one light, one fan. Then had to stuff 6 12 gauge conductors into a built in junction box that clearly an engineer who had never worked Iin the field a day in his life had designed...

    Where do you see this? I could barely see the leaf pack from the flex pic EST posted. Although I'm viewing from my phone...

    Anybody here use a blue sea system fuse block for your wiring of lights and other stuff? Thinking about getting one but just wondering if it’s worth the money or just keep my online fuses like they are and don’t worry about it.
