    Installed my Birddawg mirror riser. Quick and easy, opens up the vision a bit. Take a little getting used to though.

    I installed extended stainless steel break lines today. It was really straight forward and good to check another thing off the truck to-do-list

    However, I was defeated by Chinese electronics. I was never able to get the Koolertron tire pressure monitoring system to work. The most unfortunate thing about the whole situation is that I assembled my new wheels and tires with the kit's aluminum valve stems and TPMS sensors. So it looks like I'll have to tear the wheels and tires apart to replace the valve stems and sensors with OEM parts. This will give me the only chance to return the system and get the low tire pressure dash light to go off.

    I'd be willing to take the monetary hit (to save the time and money of switching them out) if those sensors could be reprogrammed wirelessly to sync with the OEM relay that came factory. My OCD wants the dash light to go off and the system to function properly (OEM or otherwise doesn't really matter to me as long as it works).

    There are sensors that can be cloned to match your factory transponders.
    Convenient for those who run summer/winter sets.

    Hell yeah! Garage floor coating is expensive! Also, I painted my ARB bed rack there. Doing that one pretty much coated the floor.

    Replaced all of the bushings on my TC UCA's since several ballooned even after proper greasing procedures and adjusted my coilovers to add a little more height in the front.

    I have some 2013's I can part with for some $ if you're interested pm me.

    As far as what I did to my truck today cleaned it inside and out. Ordered a Ultragauge OBD2, RelineTuning Hood struts, and pop & lock PL5400.
