    Definitely took some wiggling to get it in place also loosen the bottom slider bracket to get it in. But once it’s in place it does disturb anything.

    Used my truck like a truck and took a load of accumulated garage junk to the dump. Came home, washed off the dump dust and took a nap.

    Anyone have suggestions on stock height greaseable shackles? Also the front hanger bolts? Seems like most are just grade 5 drilled and tapped...

    Aren't the OME greasable shackles stock height? Those are the only ones I know of but I'm fairly certain they aren't lift shackles

    Installed new injectors and fuel pressure regulator today. Trucks running much smoother with better acceleration

    Prepped and primed my rock sliders and bumper, then raptor lined them. I added sand to the raptor liner to add some grip to the rock sliders.
    It was a LOT of work to do this with the rock sliders welded to the truck.
    Not sure how I feel about the Trail Gear bumper yet. I might end up replacing it.

    Sorry. Hungover. I responded to the wrong comment. Lol. Looks good man. I love mine. Got my pistol holster, flash light, and ham radio mounted. Freed up so much room

    My apologies John. I need a bloody Mary to turn this hangover into a hang on
