    Thank you! Yeah Tyler & Satin @ Pelfreybilt are the shiznit :)
    They make a quality product and their customer service is top notch!
    They are currently building a custom bed rack for me with modular accessory bars for my Rotopax cans. I can hardly wait. But you can't hurry perfection so alas I stare @ the clock and wait

    Just added some white Vision X rock lights today. Took me about 4 1/2 hr for install. I ran the wires for the controller box through the firewall and have it mounted on the kick panel by my left foot. Used that heavy duty 3M tape again to mount it in place.
    To mount the LED pods I just used JB Quick weld. Prepped the spot with steel wool and rubbing alcohol before install to maximize adhesion bumyzama_9ebebd828c2bb5095d81a6af9c20a67022b20a15.jpg

    I think I paid 1k for the coilovers, for the rear I got the all pro expo leafs and cheap procomp shocks since I won't be hitting the desert the rear didnt need to be anything special to me.

    Yeah he's making the rack but I'm only gonna put my light powder machine on it (around 300#s). Should be here by July. Just in time for summer :/
    I'm gonna have to film the first time I drive it up top. Hope I don't keep on going off the front end. Lol
    I would love a tent but I missed the group buy and if I can save 30%ish on a $1500 tent I can wait for the next one

    A few bolts are different.
    If new wheels are ever thought of for your truck, contact me about buying the baja wheels please.

    Nope. Just told him what I wanted and let the artist go to work. When he gets into the actual fabrication of the rack I'm sure we will be taking a lot

    No. As im only going to be putting my light 300# machine up there it will not need em. If I put a tent and 2 ppl on that rack it would be well over 300#s and I do not plan on doing any "wheeling" with it on the back. So I should be A-OK.
    Just going to set up some skids and use my winch and a shackle block to a tree to pull it up and get everything situated and tied down. In the field it will be another story. But ill cross that bridge when I get to it.
    I'm sure it will look awkward as hell all loaded up but considering I will have everything I need in/on my truck with no trailer I will b happy. With all my Rotopax an extra 19gallons (4x4gallon) (1x3gallon) of fuel and my truck bed wide open for all my equipment/gear.
    The only thing I worry about is snow/ice traction/ride with all that extra weigh in back but I'll have me some bad ass snow chains for all my rubber by then

    How far forward will the rack go, and do you plan on moving up there. I think it will look badass with it up there!

    It won't go any further forward than his standard bed rack. Mine will just be much higher. Almost flush with cab height. I figure I'm going to put the skids for the sled on the back of the cab/front of the rack and the sled itself will sit on an aluminum platform I'll attach to the bed back.
    I plan on moving to the mountains at some point in the future when my money tree here in Dallas runs out. Till then I have fiends in Utah and Idaho that keep all my snow toys for me. I get conjugal visits but not often enough for all the $ I spend on em
