    I'll have lots of things to do on my truck come summer. Mod days sound good to me.

    Fab rear bumper
    Take out a leaf spring on the front axle.
    Take out 2 leaf springs on the rear axle, Chevy overload at least.
    Clearance bedside by cutting out fender
    Move front axle forward ~.75"
    Front driveshaft work
    Clearance around front by tubbing (most likely too much for BFH)
    Rear Bumpstops
    Install Ruffstuff trac-bar
    Install Blue Seas fuse block and 100A circuit breaker, then rewire a ton of stuff.

    Maybe Items
    In-cab winch controls
    New battery terminals

    If anyone asks you to sled down Hatcher Pass, the answer should be a clear "No." This was from a trip last month I did with my church group of teenagers.

    Has anyone had Kendall install a Magnuson SC in a gen2? Just curious if they would flash with TRD SC flash, or just give you a blank look.

    GTF the place to go for ARB/OME products in town? Looking to get some suspension and a front bumper, figured I'd just get it all at once to save on shipping. Buy once, cry once right?

    Yes. They might be able to bundle ship everything and combine it with a stock order to reduce shipping cost.

    Moving up to Fairbanks/North Pole in October from Seattle and this looks awesome! Anyone have good recommendations on "must-haves" for the truck before I make the drive up? I've heard things like remote start & heated seats for deep winter are good. I'm trying to take advantage of that lower 48 shipping & Amazon prime while I can haha

    FYI we have Amazon prime up here too... It just doesn't ship as quickly. About 1-2 weeks from order to delivery.

    A remote start is nice, we like the compustar 2 ways on our cars. Up here the basic compustar 2 way runs about $500 installed from a good shop.

    For the drive, I recommend flares, shovel, recovery rope, good tow points front/rear, extra fluids (for you and another car if needed), a gas can with 5 gals (buy a few in Canada since they aren't over-regulated crap cans without vents like the US), first aid kit, fire extinguisher, extra windshield washer fluid, a few fuses you might need, and paper towels to clean your headlights.
