    Are you able to send some pictures of the receiver hitch or how it attaches to the frame?

    The receiver hitch doesn't attach to the frame, its just a piece of 2-1/2" sq tube welded to the inner side of the bumper, located behind the license plate.

    Grille lights with panel and possible positions.png
    Those pictures are the possible mount locations in the grille.

    Might need help with that one though. I have never done anything like it before and the 'instructions' provided by the company were not very helpful. Just listed the patterns and what each wire does or is for.

    Yea the truck doesn’t exactly “struggle” but it does shift a lot which is annoying. All in all it can hold speed just not like it could with 33”

    Thankfully you weren't cocky enough to run that trail with no skids!

    Notice anything weird when driving?

    Back wall and all 4 doors are done. Not the prettiest but I can already tell a HUGE difference in sound quality from my speakers and a quieter cab in general. Can’t wait to get the roof done, I have 4 rolls left. Might be able to do the floor but I doubt it.
    Gonna do that top bar thing on the back wall because my OCD id driving me crazy that it isn’t covered.
