    Did you install the VLR-15 plug-in resistors to prevent hyperflash?
    I'll have to check mine.
    See if they flash.

    That is great, I would really hate that I was one of the ones saying DO IT and it not work out for you, I don't take giving advise lightly....


    I totally agree, I have changed every bulb out in the truck over to LEDs except for the front running/turn signal bulbs and the headlights, probably won't mess with the fronts run/turn bulbs cause I am not as worried about someone seeing them and I am happy with the H9 upgrades for the head lights...
    Now the DRLs were already LEDs when I got the truck and I can see a little black box with a white label with LED written on it with some other words, so I really don't know if factory or upgraded before I got the truck... (but doesn't look factory to me anyway)....

    It’s something “gatorback”. The material is nice quality the fit was/is still a partial fit. It was advertised as specific/oem fit but that wasn’t my experience. The holes didn’t line up on the inner mounts for the flap or the metal bracket, the front brackets had to be bent because the flaps rubbed on stock suspension and tires (still do at full lock on a bump). I had plans to revisit this because I didn’t install the bracket in the rear (only attached at the fender holes). I can hopefully address the rub with an alignment but I’m waiting till tires are a must

    Installed eibach 2 inch lift springs onto my 5100s. Drivers side 2nd clip + 1/4 spacer and passenger side 1st clip, to account for taco lean. Truck looks great now, rear will be higher to add some rake when I get my Icon RXT Packs in next weekend.

    Finally decided to install the Borla S-Type cat back exhaust. Picked it up locally for such a good deal I just couldn’t pass up on it.

    I replaced mine with what I consider cheap struts already manufactured when I top 100 k I’ll man up with a set of bilsteins. Keep the spacer and section normal ride height.

    So just to be 110% clear, the right turn signal while in reverse is now working without hyper flashing correct??

    AZ destroys it. This is the one in back of my rental house, after last summer. Left half with no blooms, right half with blooms but bent over from heat. Thinned out all over. Unless you want to water all day long.
