    Thanks man! the BHLM sounds scarier then it really is. It really isn't that bad. Noise from the expos? No noise at all. Not yet at least. When I initially installed the expos I'm pretty sure I got just over 4'' lift with absolutely no weight on the truck. Once I got my rear plate bumper on and they settled down a bit I think they got to just over 3''. they match perfectly for the stance I wanted with my front setup. I'm very happy with them.

    Hoping to have buddy help me install this weekend.

    I couldnt find one locally either! It was pissing me off so i just ordered it. It should be pretty simple unless you already have a ton of shit wired up and you have to start rerouting things. Let me know how it goes!

    Yea i might have to reroute wires.
    I purchased a Cooper Bussman/ 100 amp Circuit Breaker. [​IMG]

    That look similar to yours?

    Here's one where I'm figuring out a place to put the backup camera. And I think I found the perfect place (not where it shows in the photo). Just have to put together a little housing unit for the camera and I'm set!

    yeah tell me about it! I've been neglecting my truck for about a month now.....

    I found the perfect spot for the reverse camera and have it all wired up, I just need to make a small metal housing for it and tack it on. again....too much neglecting of the truck. But I am going to wash her today! :)

    That's my next big buy. I promised myself I would go through these Rugged fails before getting new tires, and it's almost time.....I might even just buy a set of new rims so I can have a froading set and a street set. Still deciding...

    No worries on the flag. You had a good enough excuse!! :eek:
