Was going to put some stickers on the truck that I’ve been accumulating. Didn’t know where to put them. (Air dam on the rack, bed of truck, under the hood......? Any suggestions?) Or should I just leave them off?

Literally everywhere.

Back windows, roof case, gas door, bike rack, so on and so forth.

I refuse to put stickers on my truck. Except I do have one American flag on the back glass of my topper. Only advertising I care to do.

I have one sticker, "Re-elect No One".

Did you have to use spacers to get the bike mount far enough out from under the rolled up tonneau? I am going to be installing some of mine this weekend and I am thinking I will have to push them out from the bed rails by a little bit...

I love that look! I have started to notice that the white plastic insert in my hoodscoop is slightly different white from the hood of my truck. A black cover would totally fool the eyes about this.

Where did you have it done? Any particular brand you'd recommend?

I have regular, cheap Fork Mounts, that don't stick out as far as the Rocky Mounts ones do, and a roll up Tonneau cover just like the one you're asking about.

I didn't have to use any spacers or anything, the angle of the fork allows it to clear the rolled up cover without any problems.

Painted the gauge cluster since I had most of it apart anyway

Also installed and began to rewrite my Bussmann RTMR and accessories

BEFORE

AFTER

Some wiring needs to be finished but it’s about as clean as you’ll find. I just need to finish it up.

Here’s the dual battery set up behind the rear seat

And I also installed my new rock lights from Lux Lighting

They are Lux lighting. They are magnetic and connect to each other which means no hanging wires. I hid the wires in the frame so they arent hanging low

I can take more photos or I can take photos of where I have them if youre interested in seeing where theyre placed. gonna try and take a photo where its darker

Four new Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 (10ply E rated)

And an alignment - it was way out, much better now but still tracks slightly to the right.

It's pulling to the right because you have no right caster! Caster should be even or slightly less on the DS for the crown of the road. Take that shit back & make them do it right.

Picked up a matching Leer 100XR for a steal! Just had to invest a bunch of elbow grease.

I like that gauge cluster insert, is that aftermarket? I like the white/carbon look. It would really match my truck

I'm taking about the actual speedo piece, where the mph, gas gauge etc is...

Looks to me like they only really adjusted the toe and the steering wheel. Do they not know how to adjust caster and camber or or are they just too lazy?

Added mesh grill, removed bedside stickers and derped the badges.

I blacked out and when I came to my truck looked like this:

(I'm more of a mall crawler and this was spontaneous and out of character )
