    Has anyone on here done a rear leaf pack on their truck? I am most likely going to get Deaver or dobinsons springs to correct my bro lean. Just want to know what brands you would recommend for 2”.

    Swapped out my Morimoto xB fogs last night for the new Diode Dynamics Elites. Much brighter on the road and have a sharper cutoff. Matches the xB headlights really well too. They look almost exactly the same on the truck as the Mori's so no new pics yet, but I'll post some after the pnp backlight harnesses show up and are installed.

    This isn't the right thread to ask in, but I would highly recommend the Deaver J66 if the bed will be kept empty most of the time. It rides fantastic. If you are adding a bunch of weight, grab their u402 pack that fits your needs. I had the RXT first and would not recommend that pack to anyone who is keeping the bed empty most of the time (it rides way too stiff unloaded)

    I’m probably going to get the dobinsons 111r with Bilstein 5100’s. I tow a 5x8 trailer at least once a month and I got that 75 lb bed cover so just looking for something that will help the sag when I do that.

    Similarly, I have an OME BP51 lift with Ironman 4x4 leaf springs because the shop said they have had issues with the OME’s getting squeaky.

    I’ve heard a lot about Old Man Emu springs wearing out early and squeaking which steered me away from them.

    My icons squeak too but I believe the OMEs may have been worse. I will say OMEs customer service was great.

    I have Icon AAL and they squeak. That being said, I think any leaf springs will squeak, eventually, if they are in direct contact with each other.

    I don’t remember the post but a member on here took his pack apart and threw in some custom brass spacers. Wish I saved it.

    I bought them from a local shop that had a listing on FB marketplace, and just messaged the shop owner a few times to get the wheel specs and to set up a time to have them installed, but I believe these are the wheels he sold me...

    I have the OEM Audio Plus system with dual amps stacked under the driver's seat. The mount attaches to the seat so there is good airflow around both amps. The sub is driven by a dedicated 300W amp.

    After retuning the power out on the dedicated amp, the new sub "THUMPS!" I'm very happy with my setup.

    Did you drill a new hole or attach it with the current mounting holes? The issue I had with mine with using the original holes was I couldn't get the wiring to clear my fuse mount. Un fortunately I can only add 2 relays unless I bend the wires significantly. Here's a better picture of mine:

    Got a little dusty in Central Oregon and these little boney dudes held on tight the entire time. :pumpkin:

    And since I won't be doing much camping for the next 5 months or so I got around to pitting the back seat back in and the neoprene rear seat covers. They look pretty good overall. I wish they didn't have slits for the head rests (since I don't use them) but they're not bad for what they cost.
