    Looks great! I’m looking at the same setup on the front, I just don’t want the bull bar on it. Your truck is awesome!

    Looks great! Gotta ask…where did you get the spooky patch? I’m an old AC130U guy

    At the moment, I can't recall. I collect morale patches, and patches in general. I'll try and locate where I got that one.

    The patches look great. My 1st Gen had a headliner that I could put my patches on however with this 3rd Gen, they don’t stick to it. Is itbecause I have an SR or did youchange out that headliner?

    I've found that if the patch has long enough and loose enough velcro, it'll attach. Press the patch into the headliner, and as you press, give the patch a side-to-side twist, and it'll "stay" some patches I have barely hang on, others are holding but will fall off if touched, or not at all. The velcro hooks need to be long enough to grab. Most of my cool patches were iron ons, so they have the short plastic hooks which won't work on the headliner. It's a disappointment because my Subaru Crosstrek's headliner was practically full

    I believe the patch came from https://patch-control.com/en however I'll need to look at the patch back in the truck. But it looks like it was a limited run.

    It's a ton of work, but maintenance washes are so much easier after.

    Finally installed my Bilsteins front and rear. 6112s (#9/#7 for 1.4") and 5160s. Also did the ECGS bushing while I was there. Did it solo. Took 1hr 20min for the rears. Took 3.5hrs to do fronts and bushing. I was very surprised how easy it was to do. No pics taken...also forgot to take before measurements...too focused on getting it done.

    Installed the PowerTray / SwitchPro combo. Happy with the results. Cleaned up a ton of wiring. Amps running to the positive Blue Sea bus bar. Wired in ditch lights and ditch/light bar back lighting to make sure everything functioned. Time for a(nother) beer.

    Still all in my head… but I’m keeping the chrome bumper!
    I take 3M Velcro with the peel off backing, then stick the tough side on the latch, works great because then I could use my iron on patches. Your patches look rad by the way.
