    I built them at my shop. They work well, added the additional tie down points.

    That's where a high clearance bumper with swingout and low/ mid height bed bars come in handy. Of course it sucks when I want to move something...

    265/75r16 goodyear wrangler duratracs, e-rated. so far the road manners are good. really glad i got the taller sidewall since it seems to have offset the added stiffness of the E-rated load. now just gotta get em off road and in the snow :D

    Lol I've had enough with helping everyone move their crap. Something always gets damaged. I get a sick satisfaction out of saying "nope! Go rent a truck if you don't want to own one. I'm not a moving company." :rofl:

    Thankfully they were 100%. I'm glad they were in this and not a little POS.

    Hell yeah! :headbang:

    Some people add one to eliminate pad click.
    Thought you might put one in while you had it apart.

    Lightly sanded the hole I drilled in my dash for the XM antenna.
    Took some measurements and found that the piece of steel I bought for the bracket will be too thick.
    I went today and bought a thinner piece of aluminum. I marked all the holes, I just need to cut/drill/bend/file the piece.

    I tested the antenna placement yesterday and reception was surprisingly good. After I get the GPS antenna mounted I'll see what I need to do for both antenna cables.

    If anybody is looking for a cheaper GPS antenna cable because your truck didn't come with navigation and you have a factory nav unit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ORIGINAL-T...ENNA-2014-2020-NEWER-LATEST-TYPE/254542056696

    Ouch. So sorry. Sounds like you’re a good man. My son is in the Air Force Reserves and asked to use my truck when he flew home for his monthly commitment. I cringed and politely told him no. I know...I know...bad father. Instead I took him down and helped him get into a truck of his own. Hopefully everyone is okay and insurance will get it fixed for you.
