    @Maxcustody - Great build! I'm probably going to copy your suspension set up but will be going with a gofastcamper.

    Nice truck.

    I'm looking at the same kit from Filthymotorsports. Were the wheel spacers still necessary with the different backspacing of the SCS Ray 10's?

    How is the ride quality? Worth the extra work for the shock relocation in your opinion?

    Thanks...........The wheel spacers were needed due to the Deaver suspension and Kings, it moves the wheel out due to the relocated shock mount. The ride quality is great, everything feels tighter and handling is much better. I only wanted to do the suspension once, so yes I think it was worth it. The amount of suspension travel is the big difference in the rear...........

    Sorry for such a late reply must have turned the notification off............You obviously don't have the same amount of room, but I like the sleeping in the truck better. Much quieter and it doesn't matter how windy it is, when I was in Utah the was wind was howling and I slept great instead of all the flapping and being on top of the truck being pushed around. Since I have the rack on the truck now, I am kicking around the idea of using my oztent again just to have some more room.

    I know it's an older post. I have nearly identical 2019 DCLB and trying to compare the BAMF to CBI sliders. Did you get the DOM or HREW welds? I debating the kickouts but think they may assist a bit with roof access if nothing else.
    Your thoughts? Great build by the way-impressed.

    Thank you. I just got the regular steel sliders. I figured they were tough enough, they are the bolt on ones, fit was perfect. I use the kickouts as a step as well.............love the kickout well worth it.

    Added my scan gauge above the mirror with the Blend mount, easy install and best place to mount it IMO......

    Added at least 10 HP...............TRD oil cap, TRD Rad cap, New air filter and Cabin filter. Cabin filter pretty dirty at 20,000 miles.

    Best looking wheels I have seen with the Silver Sky DCLB. I will likely look for these when I have burned through my stock tires and upgrade the whole package.
