    Big thanks to @pudge151 for meeting up last week for the bedrails. Once the bandsaw and welder arrive the build begins!

    Well here it is. Took less than 10 min. to install. There is a lip on the plug that you need to be careful with .
    Hint . Mount the plug to the bracket first then mount the bracket. My frame mounting bracket has nuts welded to the frame see pic one. I don't know if all trucks are this way , just a heads up.

    My frame is Fluid Filmed so take a look ,3 applications in a year and a half.
    Im happy

    Morning everyone. Back to the routine after a wild and crazy trip to Ocean City with the boys. I need a vacation from that vacation.

    Good thing is, next week I'll be in the Outer Banks with the bro in law, so I have that to look forward to.

    Talk about a shitty start to the week... so not only do I have to be back at work after partying all weekend, but my battery died.

    Truck didn't move for 4 days. This morning, got in and started right up to go drop off the oldest at daycare. Got to daycare, went inside, came back out and it was DEAD. NOTHING worked. Callled my FIL to meet me with jumper cables. Wouldn't work because his car battery is small. A guy was next to me with a big Silverado, so I asked him if we could use his. Looks at my battery and says it's way bigger than his, might not work either, but we gacve it a shot. Still wouldn't work. Luckily there was an Auto Zone right up the road. Called, asked if they had tools I could borrow if I bought the battery. Said yes, ran up, bought it, swapped it, and back in business.

    FML. What a start to the day/week.

    Nuno.
    After reading your post about your battery problems this morning will you be upset if I don't press the like button.
    Liking your problem wouldn't make sense. Today was your day tomorrow could be mine.
    On the positive side it didn't happen in the middle of WINTER.
