    I think it was my fault, but again I took my sweet ass time, tried two different paints and cleaned them super well.

    3D printed some spacers for my driver and passenger seat similar to the ones sold on here made out of aluminum. Turned out great and only took a couple of hours to print all four.

    I have no sympathy for somebody that dumb. You ordered hot coffee wtf did you expect?

    Really... somebody did this too? Jeez.... makes me feel great about the direction this country is going.
    Both morons. If I was the judge in these cases I would've laughed there face & told them to fuck off!
    How come there's no " do not shake before opening" on pop & beer cans?

    You need to paint your bumper to match the rest of the black on your truck

    Nice front set up. What headlights are those and where did you get your color matched grill surround?

    I’ve been running cheap Autozone switches for the last 7 years and just adding on as needed but it was time for an upgrade.

    64CDCE03-66BD-42A0-BFD3-DFEBF5EF46A6.jpg

    Finally bought all the parts and built a proper switch panel.

    Drove it, to the dealer to pick up some parts and to order some stuff.
    Now I'm doing research on CB installs and inverter harness part numbers and other stuff I want to do to the truck.
    I broke a chassis hole plug when removing my sway bar to install the relocation bracket. Ordered a new one (got the part number from the frame recall instructions).

    Are they solid fill?

    I’d definitely keep an eye on them. I’d imagine in an accident it wouldn’t take much force for the bolt to bend over and split them wide open.

    They are solid fill, 100%. I believe it would have to take a hellacious force. I stacked three center blocks on them and it didn’t budge.
