    Hahaha gotcha! Been thinking of finding some decent canvas and using some 550 cord and some poles for a decent awning.

    Tepui makes one for about 200 shipped. I may get that in the future because it attaches to th rtt rails. Want to go wheeling with everyone first to see if it really gets used?

    Your setup will probably be sweet. . Test vehicle!

    I bought my led bar from superbrightled.com 24" single row pretty damn bright if you ask me $149. Everyone at the meet was surprised for the price

    we'll see how it turns out. Not to worried since it was under $150. If it works great. If it doesn't not too much invested

    If it has the screws on the face make sure they are real and if not take it off and seal it good with some good glue. Actually, either way take the face off and seal it. The cheaper bars tend to have bad seals

    Paul, you ever measure your total travel with the Icon Extended coil overs? Im debating getting a pair but only if its really worth it.

    You may also need some uniball UCAs to take advantage of the extra travel.

    I have LR UCA's, same as Paul. They have more clearance and travel than the stock, just enough for extended travel coilovers :)

    I have not measured it but I would be interested to see the difference between running an LR compared to an Icon UCA...

    Maybe somebody knows. If not I'll call wheelers or DSM

    I thought you had LR UCA's... Im curious about the travel of your coil overs vs bilstein/eibach coil setup I have. I may be in the market for some extended Icon's...

    Gotcha. I do have LR's. We can get that measurement when we work on the trucks. Don't think I will be able to this weekend. I'll text you for sure tomorrow
