    Just use the bottom holes in the plate. It won't look the best but the plate won't block the light.

    Your brake lights are on in the last picture? Your third brake light isn't working?

    Hi, what is the size of your tires? And is your truck lifted or stock?

    The Rockauto kit comes with all the pulleys and entire tensioner assembly, I only used the pulley on the tensioner assembly.

    I've been hearing squealing on cold mornings. I figured I'd just do all of it all at once now, since the truck has almost 130k miles on it and I have no idea if it was ever done before now. Bearings wear out. Cheap insurance to swap them now.

    That happened to me too move the rails out on the bed caps further. Wont hurt anything. The little pin the topper slides onto on mine was snug against the bed side.

    Do you have the link to this air filter window mod? I can't seem to find it using the search function. Thanks.

    Oh the brake lights weren't on...I had the hazard lights on and snapped the pic right when they were flashing. The brake lights and turn signals are the same LEDs. If you are applying the brake and have a turn signal on, the turn signal flashes on one side and the brake it solid on the other side. Not my favorite part of these lights (combined turn/ brake lights), but asthetically they look good to me. I guess I should have wedged something on the pedal for full effect...

    Used it to pick up some lumber to start a shed build for the RTT and bed rack during the winter months. This bedrack I built for my RTT is coming in very handy!

    Look closely at the pic, looks like he cut away near the hinge and then the opposite side where the latch is.

    Did an archive garage relocate on a local friends truck. This relocate is a piece of art. Worth the premium price.

    I have a 20" behind my PRO grille, but you could run one wider! **edit** never mind, I just realized that you had the CAI behind the grille :)

    Why not lower the plate to mount on the skid plate or something along those lines, so you get full use of the light bar?

    Awesome! I have their U bolt flip kit on order. I may get some Hammer Hangers to compliment the new leafs when the time comes! Glad their quality is up to snuff.

    I just got flip kit from them in the mail the other day. It’s pure beef! Hammer hangers are great too.
