    smashed this, broke that, covered it up with tape and paint
    I've been talking to them about doing a 4" on my truck so hopefully you'll have that option soon as well

    Im really considering pulling the trigger on some roadrunner rear bedsides for mine. That way if I go true LT in the rear, wont have to worry about that later on. I assume many are going with the 4 inch bedsides for their second gen LT rear setups?

    Correct. Plus I'm pretty sure your tc sua so unless you cut the shit out of your bedsides you're already loosing bump travel

    Oh ok cool, I mean if I put glass bedsides on, my hope would be eventually to convert to a DMZ sua.

    Would be different geometry I would have to relocate everything and replace the TC sua entirely.

    Ah gotya, I think I have seen some have said it is good to have the tent rack be attached via the bottom of the bed instead of the rails. This is because the fiberglass bedsides wont have as much loading capability in terms of weight and the tent could be an issue over time with the bedsides cracking. I don't know if anyone has experienced this necessarily happen to them, but I would see if you can get the contact points of your tent rack adjusted to bolt done along the bed itself.

    Depending on shock size and placement as well as tire size, I believe you can get away with 33s with no spacers and pull the stock bedsides about 2" out and cut up where you need it. Maybe if you get the frame notched to tuck shocks in it would work with no rubbing

    Glassworks has been bought out! I just got my fiber through the new advanced team, currently shipping (Guam) but i can say John and their whole team were awesome to work with even though i made it pretty difficult. Ill post back with pictures once i get it all installed. Would recommend over some of the others that are impossible to get a hold of

    I got the 3-piece front end for the 2nd gen, cheaper than fiberwerx and was ready/shipped about 3 weeks after purchase which is I think sooner than they originally told me, that's just my experience though they're worth a call to find out or website has chat option
