    Not sure if it helps, but I just talked to Kings yesterday about adjusting for driver’s lean. They said 2 to 3 turns more than the pass side should do it.

    I wouldn't recommend it. Looks easy enough to bend your brackets to get some clearance.

    Got a new B&W trailer hitch to work with the higher hitch position on my Shrockworks bumper. Not the cheapest, but last hitch I should ever need:

    Yeah. Definitely paint it. I'd say color match but if the bed rail liner is still visible, then would definitely lean to blacking it out.

    I removed the camper shell for the first time in a couple years. Think I’ll keep it this way for a while.

    Not much, but I finally replaced 2 missing hubcaps. I could only get a pack of 3 so if anyone is looking for one, let me know.

    Nice job on your truck. It looks great and I really like those TRD wheels with 33” tires.

    I’d paint it black. It’s hard to paint match lunar mist. I got my camper shell painted to the lunar list paint code and it looked different for a few years until the sun faded it some

    From a flow standpoint, it's actually probably better to be that close.

    I've got a white one, for a regular or ext cab, I'd give it to someone if they come and get it.

    Thanks! Plenty of other cool parts just sitting in the garage waiting to go on. Between work, school and life the poor old girl never gets any attention.
