    Any shots of how that snorkel is hooked up on the inside? I've been looking at those a pondering.

    Glad to see you didn't sell the ride. Have you taken it for a spin with the new shocks?

    Good to hear, hopefully things are legit now on the homefront. I would say your build is starting to become complete with all the stuff it has seen so far.

    yea man, the major stuff is done... I want to get a bed topper or another bed rack and some little things... (Factor55 flatlink and a synthetic line for the winch) but yea man, the build is really turning out well!

    Nice man, wish my truck came together as fast as yours is. Are you getting the topper or rack just for carrying gear or do you plan to get an RTT? I got a soft topper I am currently using, but wont need it in the long haul.

    I ground 2 flat spots down and held it with vice grips for the driver's side, but the passenger side wouldnt budge so I had to cut it completely out

    I got rid of my Engo winch and pulled the trigger on a SmittyBilt X2O 10k with synthetic line and wireless remote

    (also ordered a compressor! now I just have to mount it up!)

    Mounted my Hi Lift (tractor supply brand) to my bed header rail using the RCI mounts and then bought a horse stall bed mat and cut it to fit...... this thing is super heavy duty and I'm really happy with how it turned out
