    Not really. But I am going to place them directly behind the rear window sorta like folks have been doing with bed utility lights.

    I'm open to ideas though!

    well IMO a good spot for the reverse lights is under the bed.....it depends if you have the spare tire there tho. I have mine under there and you can't see them at all. when i throw it in reverse it looks like I have super bright stock back up lights haha

    I thought about that, but I dont have a spare carrier in the bed (YET!). Thinking about fabbing something similar to the nfab carrier.

    i'd say fab up the tire carrier, that thing looks bad ass.

    I took my tire out a probly a month before i built the bed basket, so i just had the tire strapped down in the bed for off roading.

    the only problem with having reverse lights on the bed rails is that they might not go over the tail gate? so you would just light the area and not so much the back of the truck. but i've never tried it to see if thats true haha

    Welp! That vote of confidence put me over the edge. Decided to use my gift certificate to 4wheelparts which covered an Nfab carrier and a spare ATX Artillery wheel!!! So basically I just purchased a 285/70/17 KM2. Free shipping as I'll pick it up at one of their local wherehouses here in town. So pumped. Happy early christmas! I'll powdercoat the "shiny black" tire carrier tuscan black at a local place. Should have everything complete before the new year!

    Well that settles it, you should sell you wheels and buy new ones. No wait time there :)

    Great looking truck! I just bought a used 09' that looks very similar to yours. The truck I got has the Camburg UCA's and Camburg coil-overs but is stock in the rear resulting in the front end pointing upward much more than I would like. What did you end up doing to the rear and have you been happy with it? Love the pics, can't beat the AZ landscape!

    I got rid of the Camburg UCAs and picked it up Total Chaos UCAs. I like them much better.

    For the rear, I ended up going with Icon 2.0 shocks w/ reservoirs. It was either those or the Fox 2.0 Piggyback. Both are the same IMO. Just a matter of pricing.

    First off i LOVE your truck...i like the simplicity yet functionality of it... is there a reason why you prefer the TC's over the Camburgs? and were they the Camburg Uniballs or the ones that use the stock part?

    also does the roof rack require any drilling? or is it a clamp style thingy?

    thanks!!!

    and awesome truck!!! keep modding and wheeling!! :D

    Thanks!

    I had the Camburg Uniballs. I may have just got a bad batch but whatever. I'm happy with the TCs!

    The roof rack clamps on to the roof. Clean and simple. Goes on semi-easy and can be removed even quicker/ easier. Everything together was about $400. Kinda expensive. You can purchase the pieces from REI.

    Also, Mreimann finished my 1.75" lightbar. Gonna toss 1 Hella 550ff for auxiliary bed/ reverse lights. And going to clamp a HiLift using the fourtrex mounting dealies (http://fourtreks.com/hi_lift_roll_bar_mounts_1_75_.html). Mreimann does AWESOME work!!

    I still have to pick it up and have it powdercoated Tuscan Black. Here's the pics though;
