    I dunno, cool lettering and a patch! It’s nothing structured like “you get XYZ if you allow us to letter your truck”

    What no t-shirt!!!!

    I will say this though the activity that the Joes have on TW and seeing them active with going out offroading in the groups and helping out on stuff and advise they do do a lot for free that they don't have to. It's pretty badass. I don't see it as much from the west coast guys as much there are a couple I see on a regular when I am lurking around there that do go out and do stuff and are pretty active on TW

    But yeah, they’re both very active on here which is awesome. Very involved in the community.

    Eddy from SOS is as well. I hope that Mobtown can make it to the AOP trip in April. Eddy should be there with his buggy! I think the east coast boys have the west coasters in the bag as far as community activity and actually doing stuff outside of selling their wares to TW members.

    Might want to tighten those bed bolts......

    Looks like the bed wants to slide off

    Yea I think I’m going to go with those custom blings. I’m so close to a rebuild on the fronts. Plus I’ve got a lot of life/work stuff happening. So the truck is kind of on the back burner when it comes to upgrading the suspension. I think it’s going to be ADS front and rear replacement and sell the front Kings, also replace the Camburg uppers with the new icons, then go RS TC lowers with secondary shock locations. But first re-gear this spring and teers

    Hot damn man! It's gonna be like riding on a cloud.
    Oh that pic was taken earlier today. Once it was back on the ground, that gap was even on top and bottom so the back was definitely flexing back a bit. When it warms up I'll take out my drawer system and take a peek at the bed bolts, but for now I'm not worried.

    If it flexed back then it is what I suspected which is normal for that weight hanging off the ass end unsupported. If you do have loose bed bolts US plastics is where to get some material to make the shims pretty damn cheap and quick shipping.
