    Does the fumoto valve just take the place of the drain plug? I wouldn’t think you would want that hanging down off the truck.

    Yes, it hangs down, that's why I asked if he had skid plates protecting it.

    I’ve seen a lot of people on here have them. I guess I don’t see the benefit if they hang down. Seems like they would get caught on everything off road.

    Sway bar? That never went back on mine after the lift.

    This afternoon I cobbled together a few lengths of unitstrut to mount my Plano case and traction boards to the OEM roof rack I installed on Easter. Followed that up with installing my SOS IFS and transmission skids. The transfer case skid will have to wait until later this week or Saturday. I'll snag some pictures tomorrow.

    Getting ready for spring... decided to weld up a rack for a RTT. Only, I wanted mine to slide back and forth on the bed so I could still access a heavy cooler that might be right behind the cab...


    Documented here: Concept, frame here and here, sliders, and finally all done.

    Even without the Delrin sliders it was slide-able. The plastic bed caps are pretty slippery.
