    Either there, or move the blitzpro there and put the spot where the blitzpro is now. Probably the second option, because the spot on order is a double row, so it will look better centered.

    And yes...when people are in front of me on the trail, I just run the fogs and rock lights...that's all that's needed.

    I'm going back and forth on replacing the dust beacons/bed lights with something LED. Maybe.

    I love this build, I've used it as an outline to decide on mods for my truck. How much down travel do you have? I leveled my truck front to rear, which doesn't seem like much. Whenever I roll over the speed humps on my street or get the front to drop out when wheeling, I hear a thud, which sounds like the coilovers fully extending or the uniballs in the TC UCA's maxing out. My Icons are the extended travel, so it doesn't make sense. Does this ever happen to you? Might have to strap my front suspension before I pull something apart or something fails.

    That's one of the things I've checked, but my coils are unscathed. I've jacked it up to droop out the suspension to check if there is any contact. Thanks for the idea though, however I'm suspecting the UCA uniball.

    That one looks like it'll work just fine. Might have some slight vibrations though.

    The line was perfectly fine. The muddy, wet shit we were rolling in all day slid me somewhere way the fuck over there
