    I bed lined the hood today to match the rest of the truck. The hood is still super white compared to the rest of the truck which has a nice dirty tinge to it apparently. Hopefully over time it’ll be less vivid and actually match.

    Betty White weighs....drumroll please.....5,230 lbs. 1,280 lbs over stock, which is just insane. I have no idea where she keeps the weight.

    I need to get a little more organized and will tweak some things but the proof of concept worked nicely. Now I have a waterproof container with the essential trail repair tools.

    That R & P impact looks just as good today as it did during your 3rd attempt at self installation.

    I'm quite happy with it so far. Hopefully it withstands my shenanigans.

    That is a tall undertaking. But we shall remain hopeful.

    Thank you sir. I've been wanting to put something together. I looked for a universal pre-built, but nothing fit the bill.

    Between the case and tools it was only like $200ish for all this I think, though I didn't really keep track. Not including the impact of course.

    This way I can tackle pretty much anything suspension related, change a CV axle, and remove spark plugs in case of hydrolock scare. Of course there are always more tools to be carried but this should cover almost anything I'll encounter on the trail.

    I'm curious what some of my friends trucks weigh now. If I had to guess, everyone is grossly underestimating how much additional weight they've added (including me).
