    All done- with that said here are a few tips that may be helpful to you.
    1. Yes the small holes from the template do not line up- take your time and get these right
    2.Make sure if you have to trim the bracket inside the fender to trim close as possible to the welds holding it in- thats a tight fit.
    3.I used a 4 1/8 hole saw-worked great
    4.For the factory hole the the new tube did not fit until I used a rubber mallet to tap around the hole on the inside gently to make it fit in there-
    5.Do not use too much of the mastik cord as this will make it difficult to get tubes together. I also used some of this around the bolts on the snorkel side of fender to make a better seal on the small holes.
    6. Remove your fender flares and liners with care so you can reuse the clips and don't mess up the spots on the fender flare that hold the clips.
    7. Enjoy the new look -there's no going back now

    Love it!

    @tcBob .. A local member had one waiting to go, and we're impatient out here in Az, so we installed it on mine! He'll take mine when it shows up! Thanks again.

    Need it for 2 reasons.
    1. Only a matter of time before some idiot crashes into me in the crazy LA traffic. Then Id be forced to kill them for messing up my awesome truck.
    2. I want to have this truck for a long time and bought it to go explore,offroad and camp. Don't want to waste its life on city driving.
