    Nothing I've noticed. I have lower bed bars that keep the tent below the roof line. I think that helps a little.

    Good to know, thanks! I've been wanting a tepui but seein' as how mine's a daily driver I was worried about how it'd affect mileage, and Im not sure much of a pita it is to take it on and off frequently. Definitely like the look you got goin!

    I leave my tent on most of the Spring and Summer. It weighs, I'm guessing, about 150 lbs ... maybe. I can get it to slide off the back of the bars and onto the tailgate. I can then man handle it off the truck and slide it into a place in my garage. It's really not that big of a deal to take off or put it on.

    I dig your truck. I'm looking at the same setup at some point as far as the tent and Relentless bed bars. Have you noticed any spreading in the bed sides or had any issues? Love your pics. I also went to Moab twice last year. :D

    The Relentless bars are bulletproof and I haven't had any issues after almost 2 years.

    Not sure until I do a test fit. I still need to remove all the stock shock mounts and install the leaf pack before I start looking at welding in the hoops. I'll probably start grinding this weekend.

    Gotcha, look forward to seeing how they come out! 12" with the BAMF kit are a tight fit so I'm thinking of upgrading to 14s through the bed

    How much did your shock hoops cost? I assume without the DB lift they would be shorter and fit 12in shocks?

    Not sure on the cost since I bought the hoops from a TW member. Without the 6" lift the hoops would be closer to fitting a 12" shock.
