    Looks awesome! I ordered the same 3 leaf progressive pack along with OME 886 coils. Gonna order a set of Billstein 5100’s for front and rear as well as new UCA’s. Had 5100’s with 887’s and the 3leaf progressives on my ‘17 access cab. I left the overload leafs in because I had a shell and it gave it a slight rake back with the extra weight. :cheers:

    But these go to 11... I mean, they're rated to 1,000 lbs. Probably way more than the bed rails will withstand but still.
    I'll probably go to Amazon and get a few things, I need the T-slot anchors too, and other odds and ends. Thanks!

    Not the best picture, but it gives you a idea of the beam pattern. The light is about 8 feet from the ceiling and running off a old lawn tractor battery. You can see the center is the spot light side of it, then the wavy line part is the flood light part.

    Installed an OEM bed light kit.

    ...and hated every damn second of this install.

    reminded me of why I pay to have someone else suffer through installs.

    Other than that, the kit works great! Lol

    Is that an OEM kit? Doesn’t look like the ones that come installed from the factory....?

    Finished adding the Battery Terminal connectors (POS/NEG) installed them on top of the fuse box (made sure the bolt holes were watertight).

    Added in the Positive Power 4 AWG underneath, and on top.

    And... mounted the Powertray with a cutout for the brake fluid - and the Bussman RTMR is now setup and ready to wire things to it.

    I know this might be "too little, too late," but I bought a set of under-rail bed lights from @mattgecko. While not OEM, they certainly provide a lot of light. I put some on this past summer. My only legit issue was running the wiring from the bed to the engine bay to power it up. But once you get it going, it works and it's bright as all get out.

    Bed lights:

    He has a few other color options. I also did some engine bay lights after buying these:
