    Awesome - but definitely take care of yourself first! The struts can wait, they get better with age :).

    Great little coffee shop in Lee Vining though. Always stop there on the way up from SD to SLT.

    Not exactly today just getting the time to post this up. Mounted rigid ditch lights and a Cree light bar from tractor supply and hid is behind the lower grill. Still on the fence about trimming clear up the path of light. Mounted up Camburg uca’s, hopefully in the next few weeks 110 Bilstein and longer lines!

    I have my 'db running lights' & head lights on every time I drive. I have had too many people pull right out in front of me in broad day light to keep the lights off!

    I would vote for a bungy or velcro strap to keep things in place, rather than a shelf. We all know how stuff piles up on a shelf. ;)

    I finally got my brake lines to install my Tundra MC and booster today. That M12x1.0 isn't very common. The M10x1.0 is everywhere.

    Red doesn't look as good as the black, when mounted, but the red are easier to find when you're wheeling in the snow.

    Finally got around to replacing my right front speed sensor harness. Replaced the left one a couple years ago. Both damaged while heavy wheeling. This is BS. Not sure if a rock cut it, or I stretched it while flexed. If it's from flexing, is there an alternative harness that is longer, for more slack?

    Got any pics of the 295s? Those are a 34x11.8 or so, right? Sounds like a great size. Almost wish mine were taller but I like the width of the 305s.

    They seem decently big since I only have a front level, but man it's always tempting to go bigger with each new set of tires haha

    I was leaning to these at first I’ve heard nothing but good things I ended up going with LSK so I could match the UCA with LCA

    Very clever idea! I’d recommend possibly using a switch dealer like CH4X4 or OTRATTW since most people running aftermarket switch locations like to use OEM style push switches or rocker. This would cut down on the amount of switches you could do but may come out a little more OEM looking. Just a thought

    edit: the buttons you show actually look to be close to the size of the small OEM push
