    Mine doesn't have the brake light option. Looks good on your truck.

    Connected it to the drivers side brake light. Drilled a with 1/2 bit through back of light housing to connect brake lights wiring to soft top brake light and used quick connects between the two for when I remove top. Putting the top on was a longer process than wiring the lights...especially in the nice cool October day (95 degrees) in Georgia.

    There’s a picture out there of a super-white 2nd gen with A light grey, gator skin wrap , on its tailgate and I accidentally deleted the picture. I’ve been searching continuously and can’t find it. If anyone could help that would be wonderful. Thanks!

    Are those tires brand new? If not, what kind of cleaner/dressing do you use? They look fresh!

    Ordered some 32"s and a pair of JBA Ucas' to replace the awful SPCs. I love the adjustability of the spc but with less than 400 miles on them the joints are clunking and popping.

    I had access to an impact driver and a couple of large vises. This helped tremendously. You definitely want a second pair of hands. Setting the u joint caps without losing or f’ing up the bearings is tricky. Get a buddy to help you for sure. It took us two hours to complete. Good luck.
