    I was considering the ARP studs but the price is a little to high for me. Might just get the Matrix wheel studs all the way around. What do you think?

    :wave: glad to see you're back

    For you, as your in need of both extra length and increased strength I'd go ARP.

    Unless when you swap out the rear (down the line i'm assuming) you plan on going 5/8 Studs then I'd go Matrix for the time being

    I wouldn't bother with 5/8th studs. If you get a ARP or any hardened stud you will be fine strength wise.

    5/8 studs will be in the future so for now I'm feeling the matrix studs front and rear. I plan on running a 2-3" wheel spacer in the rear.

    ARP = $188.20

    Matrix = $60.91

    shipped

    Its gonna get notched plus the bed cage is bolt in so shouldn't be hard to work around.

    EDIT: also this is just the bottom half of the bedcage
