    3 inch lift with led light bar on roof and bumper, fitted with offroad tires
    Those are 2 led light strips that are zip tied to the grille of the hood scoop. it did come with double sided tape but i wanted it on the inside for it wouldn't be noticeable. strips were made for 2012 and up so that why i have 2.

    It doesn't matter which way you mount them long as the dam thing doesn't leak.
    (While coughing...Kings):rofl:
    Besides the way you have them mounted you are more likely to get a stick caught in there if you off road compared to him.
    Just sayin:boink:

    These are how they were on the truck when I purchased my Pro new. I agree, probably does not matter how they are mounted, was just pointing out the fact that they are installed backwards compared to factory

    I ordered this ball shift knob from the stealership for 56 bucks.
    My old shift knob was missing half of the stitching and the leather bwas disintegrating... This feels way better in my hand than the stock one.
    It sits a little higher but not much, perfect arm rest height.

    No issues in 3 years. I took a cheap plastic edge brush and sprayed with high temp caliper paint



    Then ran it down the frame like a big magic marker

    Got in an accident a few years and the passenger headlight was replaced (obviously want OEM) and started to look really bad. So bad my mother in law gave me a gift certificate to get them polished. Made a huge difference!
