    I've been debating on going to an auto shop and picking some up and squirting it up under there, it'd definitely help. Now, I have to admit, all testing for leaks has been done with a hose in shower mode. The results may be completely different with a downward flow of rain, but I still assume the sides will leak some.

    Came from the factory that way. I think it’s included in the the premium or technology package.

    Thanks! I had been eyeing them on Amazon for a couple months, thinking they would look good on the mgm pro I was also eyeing. I'm happy with the results. Reasonably priced at a little over $300, too. Hoping they last a few years.

    I added 3/4" pipe wrap around the cross bars to ellimiate any flapping when the vinyl gets loose in warm weather. It also protect the bars a bit from cargo underneath and adds a bit of a hump so water runs off instead of puddling.

    I modded my radio knobs with knobs for a guitar amp. Cost less that $10.

    Thx. I liked the billet aluminum ones that someone was selling on this forum but just cant justify the cost for the few times that I actually need to adjust the stereo directly.

    I use the steering wheel controls myself. I've about forgotten about the knobs on the front of the head unit.

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    So what's left after getting everything powder coated and body panels on? You going to have time to get your forces induction installed?

    Complete truck overhaul and brand new shop... I can only imagine. Plus you know he’s being super OCD about anything that will be shown at SEMA.

    $50 worth of primer/paint was my choice, makes it fairly easy to touch up as they get scraped. I think it was roughly 6 weeks or so, I did my best not to constantly check my status:rolleyes:

    Attached is the guide I followed. The pictures were most informative to me. Some bolts thread from the inside, some from the outside. Pay attention near the brake lines and buy some rubber grommets mentioned, but not supplied. On my 2019 there was also a piece of plastic on each side of the frame, towards the front, that was bolted on and blocking access to bolts 1 and 2. Remove that and literally stuff your hand behind the frame to gain access.

    Good luck:cheers:
