    Well decided to change the oil and play around and measure my rear shocks for reference:

    10" of shaft exposed when maxed:

    And damnit it's a little too close for comfort with the shaft stuffed like that:

    Oh and found 3/4 cam tabs on the passenger were flat, so I ordered the TC gussets, they will be going on in the next week

    Was wondering about that tread wear on the right front when I rotated them a couple weeks ago...

    What type of taps did you use from rock light to main power/ground? solder? Don't think taps would hold up in that environment.

    I soldered a couple and said fuck it, I don't do enough soldering to be happy with that, so I used butt connectors, wrapped the +,- light wires around the lead and ground that I took all the way around the truck and crimped them, then used heat shrink, then taped, and called it good.

    Just bought a Nikon D3300, first decent camera. Reviews were good so I can't wait to get some pictures up that aren't crappy iPhone pics. Also, should finish my truck up tomorrow evening. Gonna paint the gussets tonight and put the wheels/tires on tomorrow and get everything aligned!

    Luckily I got a guy close by that can weld decently, after I welded the cab mounts I didn't have a lot of confidence in the gussets lol.

    Poor oversight on my part, I was so involved with the cam tabs and spindle gussets didn't think about the new wheels needing different lug nuts :smack:

    Ah well, ordered some black ones and everything will be together on Monday. Holding off on pics for now but cam tabs and spindle gussets are all on, needed some modifications to make them fit. And the wheel and tire combo looks siiiiick. Truck porn soon.
