    Anybody checkout the plans for REI's chuck box? I built something similar years ago. Handy and inexpensive to make too.
    Here's the PDF for anyone interested.

    eBay off brand... I can tell you. I've looked at a few ARBs (on other people's trucks), and now installed this one. The difference in quality is negligible. Someone would have to be out of their mind to spend $400+ on the ARB with this one now available.

    hahaha - not at first, or second (i think it was second)... then I spied a roll of blue painters tape sitting on a box... "Hey @2BeersPlease ... what about a little blue tape over the capture nut just to hold it in place a bit?" :headbang:

    In all honestly, I really don't want to remove the thing - for any reason lol

    lol :thumbsup:

    I actually thought about you when I posted that... (that's why I specified "with this one available now")

    You're O.G. snorkel club. You were too far ahead of the curve for the affordable knockoff version to be available yet.

    I hate rear shock installs. Spent way too long getting one shock off, but at least it’s done. AAL and Fox 2.0’s (thanks @Bentrodder!) installed and Camburgs up front last weekend. Need to bump the front up, but I’m beat.
