    Installed Wheelers ubolt flip kit with superbumps today. My advice if yer planning on doing this... invest in an impact wrench.

    Now... is this going to be a problem? One of the bolts has about an 1/8 inch deep or so cut in it. Didn't see it until after i finished, of course. Im figuring it's ok since its above the nut?

    Didn't do this today. Just remembered about this thread. Last sunday at gray man fab. @Arcticelf installed a new driver side lca and found a issue I was having in my front end. Such a relief to have it done.

    This, and since the cab/doors are better sealed there is a lot less sound leak. You dont have to turn the volume up high for the sound to be loud!

    What speakers and tweeters you go with? Was there any modification required to make the tweeters fit?

    I used the Subaru kicker tweeters and the Rockford 6x9s. I had to modify the tweeter connector to get it to fit, but that was easy. Honestly though an aftermarket tweeter is half the price of the Subaru and just requires a little extra wiring, probably worth the $50 savings.

    What did you end up doing with the inside of the doors? Did you leave off the door panel?

    I put on airbags a few months ago and love them. I’m not a big wheeler so I don’t have an on board inflator but I did pick up a Ryobi portable I keep in my garage to adjust the bags as needed. Really allows you to control your rake.

    I had the stickers too for a couple of months. Didn't really like how they looked so I painted mines. Looks a lot better.

    I went with the dmh-1500nex. It was cheap and had carplay, on sale for under $300.
