    I regret not doing the front locker when I re-geared, but I’ve done all the trails I’ve wanted to do without one. Just have to bring a buddy with a winch... :anonymous:

    I got 2 weeks to make $1,100 extra to pay for it.

    Not worth it. Save the $1,100. You’ll have a winch which you’ll find more useful and cheaper than a locker any day.

    Plus... you’ll need that money for installation. :boink:

    I will gladly drive my truck and leave it with you for that.

    @anthony250f I added the solid spacers to the order, thanks again for the heads up. Also, who did you use for the paint match on your hood?

    Any recommendations for 17” rims? I’m bumping up to 17’s to fit larger calipers.

    Was thinking SCS Ray 10’s in the grey or bronze.

    I do. They are 3.5” backspacing though. Want to buy my Ray 10s? I’ll just put the F5s on my truck.

    That was one of the big reasons I didn't make the purchase. That and price of course.

    Dang it I'm moving away from 3.5 BS. Trying to get my tires to not rip off my flare on full bump.

    Going to wait till I get the new eBay flares and cut/install them before seeing what I can fit. I think they add 1" of flare.
