    Totally understand stand the undisclosed location, my exact location was the same. Everyone always ask where we are deploying to, we always say an undisclosed location.

    Installed a Rockford Fosgate PS-8 8" powered sub under the drivers seat the other day. Spent a couple days doing it over the weekend because it was hot so I had to do it in phases. But I'm happy with the sound and this officially completes my sound system!

    It's completely covered by the seat when it's not all the way forward so you don't even notice it. My choices for location were limited due to having an access cab.

    Thx I appreciate the info. I'm assuming then that I dont need to worry about shims if I go with the 3 leaf unless I'm missing something.

    My Nephew and I are very close and he appreciates that I understand that he cant disclose certain information, unlike his Mother that constantly hounds him about things he cant answer. She just doesn't get it. He tells me things when he is allowed and I'm ok with that. Just want him to be safe. We went on a 3 day trip together a couple of years ago before one of his deployments. Had a blast. IMG_20180331_154151.jpg 20180401_175204.jpg

    That's tight but it looks like it does the job.
    I'm installing 2x 6" subs under the jump seats in my access cab.

    Mud flaps were delivered a day early. No complaints here.

    Maybe now the gravel in the construction zones won’t eat up the bottom of my fenders

    Any ideas on how to fix this other than replacing. The black wrap on the doors got jacked up

    Any sort of a rubbing compound or wax for that vinyl that might fix it?

    Or has anyone paid to have a piece replaced. If so what was cost?20200715_191953.jpg 20200715_192115.jpg

    Shims correct the angle of the rear portion of the drive shift which changes when you lift the rear of the truck because you're adding height difference between the rear drive shaft portion and the carrier bearing. Whether you get 1 leaf or 3 leaf aal, the height you gain is the main factor in needing shims or not. You can always try without and see if you're getting vibrations and if so you can go back and add the shims, not a big deal if you're doing the work yourself. If you want to play it safe, go ahead and get some shims and install them with the aals because i think most people need them to avoid drive vibrations.

    I’ve used this one before I’m not 100% sure that it will take the scratches off but they don’t look very deep so I think this will still make less noticeable . 303 (30382) Products Automotive Protectant - Interior And Exterior - Ultimate UV Protection - Helps Prevent Fading And Cracking - Repels Dust, Lint, And Staining - Non Greasy Finish, 16 fl. oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0185PU38A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_jh8dFbJ69TS30

    Sorry for the late reply. I can't open the Diamondback SE cover with the rack on. But it's four bolts (with lock washers) to remove from the mounting brackets that I leave in place. Right now I need a second set of hands to remove and put on, but I'm planning on hoisting it up from the ceiling in my garage. Especially when it has an RTT on it.

    It's good to be different. Any change in engine temp after replacing the grill?
