    This past weekend I did a cab mount chop and installed 3 degree axle shims. The mount gave me the clearance I was looking for, it rubbed at full lock, and the shims have significantly decreased my driveline vibes. The vibes moved from happening at 25 mph to around 15 mph and are much less noticeable; still need to replace my carrier bearing, hopefully that will eliminate them completely. Oh I did the "Ultimate Headlight Mod" a little while back as well, don't think I posted about it... it was an illuminating experience.

    Had a set of 3rd Gen Leaf Packs (like new), new shocks (Bilstein 4600's) and new bump stops installed today. I gained an inch of height back and the rake is just as I like it. Ride is noticeably better compared to original leaf packs (186K miles) and the OME Sport Nitrocharger shocks (they had just over 80K miles on them).

    Stock as all get out.
    Replaced the cigarette lighters with a voltmeter / usb charger. Will wire the second one up to a secondary battery when that comes in.

    The guys at Stellar Built in Sacramento fabricated everything to mount it up custom. I think there are some kits out there though…
