    Gonna add TC Bed Stiffeners to my truck, might as well do my rusted bolts at the same time. Do you have a part number for the ones you bough?

    Very nice. Do the steering wheel controls still work with the new system?

    Nice, that conversation kit is probably what I need. I have everything set up but my HU isn't receiving a signal. I'll definitely grab one of those. Thanks for the info.

    stuff and things
    You need an adapter but yes they do.

    Also with the maestro RR you get most of the cool functions from your OBD port like engine temp, tire pressure, door ajar indicator ect.

    Thank you! I'm definitely considering this. Does Bluetooth and the back-up camera work as well? My camera is currently shown on my rearview mirror.

    Be careful loading it. Our tailgates are weak and cannot handle the weight. I learned the hard way when hauling pavers. Mine buckled ever so slightly and most wouldn't notice it. After it happened to me I went looking and some people have completely ruined theirs. There are a few company's that offer tail gate stiffeners.

    Just trying to help, so if you've already heard this....

    Cleaned the Throttle Body, MAF, and freshened up the battery terminals. Didn't get to it when I put my new battery in because I was in the Costco Parking lot.

    Oh and yes that's a shoe. :rofl::rofl:

    Thought about doing a write up just so I could focus on the shoe wedge, but after taking 1 picture I was over being on my phone. Went for a second bike ride with the kids instead.

    Its 8 10mm bolts, a bungee cord for the air box and a shoe wedge for the air intake. Just in case anyone is wondering.

    I’ve finally caught up to present day on this thread, after reading the past 3or 4 months with in like 2 months. Dan y’all are long winded and get off track very easily :rofl:

    alright, I’ll add a few pics of things I’ve done over the past couple months including yesterday’s exhaust change.

    added a rear bumper that was originally made by @Timbo's Customs and got it as a hand me down from Kevin Earl (overland Florida on YouTube)
    2302C7D9-0DB2-440E-846E-F5F6D3BC6082.jpg
    Changed out the rear blocks...

    to an AAL & 5100s
    42D7884D-C33B-43B6-9818-CF9040ED0B65.jpg

    got the tweaker avoidance tool (still haven’t put it on, might do that today)
    81FFA6FD-C00F-40F8-9E75-C329F1D38617.jpg

    Added an ultra gauge on a spiker Mount, and I’m in love with it so far

    and finally, thank goodness I have great friends
    206D39F0-4233-4970-ADBF-449C3AD6B2EA.jpg

    this magnaflow 17147 catback got put on yesterday, and I’m in love all over again.

    Dont forget, if you buy oem bolts, you'll probably have to shave down the upper 1/3 of the bolt to slide off the washer. Otherwise it won't sit flush on the d-ring. I put some paint on the new bolts to help slow down any rust after grinding them down.

    Merell Men's Moab low top hiking boots work great. Low top is a must, and it has to be a shoe with some structure. I passed over a Nike Free version 1.0 , mowing shoe, for exactly this reason. :D

    Oh and don't forget the old tooth brush! But wash it out with Dawn first.
