    Alright Brent so I forgot to get back to you. Sorry! :sorry:
    So basically I'll try to show you via pictures the issues I was having.

    The mounting holes on the side bolting the tray to the top plate is clearly messed up. I had to bend both ends enough to use the hardware that they sent.
    Example:
    [​IMG]
    Mine:
    [​IMG]


    Overall I believe the top plate is just plain cut different. It appears on the driverside front that originally they had it angled straight to avoid the hood, for some reason they took that away.
    Example:
    CIMG1476_7cd47af621ef5767afea7accae4becebeed4c0b6.jpg

    Mine:
    [​IMG]

    Mine fixed:
    [​IMG]

    The Rear part of the top plate is different. Not to mention mil spec battery terminals do not work(way to close)
    Mine:
    [​IMG]

    Example:
    [​IMG]


    Now other issues I had was that the factory wiring was very close to being short. Due to that I have the factory positive on one battery and the factory negative on the other battery.

    As for Columbia Overland helping me. They didn't plain and simple. I called and he acted like he was going to help. He wanted pictures which i sent via text and we texted back and forth. It was a friday night at 9 Eastern Time which puts it at 5 or 6 their time. He said he would call me back Saturday morning. He never did. I was so frustrated with it at this point that I didn't bother wasting my time chasing him down. I never called back and neither did he.

    Thanks for the info! :thumbsup:

    As many problems as you had, I still think this will be the option I go with since there aren't many other options except fully custom...

    :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
    I had an incident at work this past week that has me tight on any extra spending. Thanks to some asshat who thought he/she could use my 20Volt Dewalt collection more than I could. So at this point Im out something like $1200 in tools and company insurance will not cover personal tools.

    :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    They stole:

    Cordless Impact
    Cordless Drill/Hammerdrll
    Cordless Sawzall
    Cordless Light
    Cordless SDS Hammerdrill
    Cordless Bandsaw
    Miscellaneous handtools
    Company Corded Bandsaw
    2000 feet of #10 THHN

    Yeah thats what sucks its the only tray on the market.

    My suggestion is to call the order in and mention that you would like to order the older version not this newest one

    Stolen from our company van, in either our shops lot or a retail store in Hagerstown MD. Doors were locked but unfortunately Chevy apparently only has so many different versions of there key sets. Soo basically you can open doors to other peoples vehicles if you have enough keys. :rolleyes:

    It is what it is at this point I don't have time to chase down tools that I'll never find. I'm an 1 1/2 hour away so it's to far to try.

    Oh shit man that sucks! Hopefully those bastards use the tools to neuter themselves so at least their genes won't carry on!

    Also, apparently that Cabela's page on IG was a fluke by some kids to make a popular hunting page

    Yeah I'm hoping my bandsaw cuts his dick off.

    Ooooo Yeah I noticed I'm suddenly following some hunting page now. I knew it was to good to be true. I saw it on Josh's page so I thought I'd try it

    Alright so I've been looking on copart.com at salvages. I was looking at Brian's truck but it turns out because it's in Maryland I would need a broker to bid for me. I don't really like that idea so I found another one in pa it looks effed up but I'm pretty sure I can get the rear axle, driveshaft, transfer case, maybe front diff. Oh and there's surprise on it :D

    http://ww2.copart.com/us/Lot/27801744

    If anybody has experience on stuff like this let me know I'm just guessing at this point

    No clue. That's a truck I'd want to see in person before I pay for it though.
