    Dude I was looking at that one!! It's nice. I really like Husky stuff. I have a full set of sockets from Husky and I really like them.

    Yeah! I worked at HD for 4 years from when I was 18 so a big part of my tool collection is Husky. They have a lifetime replacement on all their hand tools- no questions asked, just like craftsman. I've replaced a couple socket wrenches already. Awesome brand IMO.

    The only problem with ordering the tool boxes is that the employees there usually mistreat bigger items, so you'd be hard pressed to find one without a little damage. I waited for one of my local stores to have at least more than 5 in stock before i went to go buy it. I inspected the box and found a small tear in the cardboard from a forklift and was able to negotiate 10% off for damage. I was pleased to find that the damage was only a small dent the size of a nickel on the lower corner on the side of the box. For 10%, I'll take it..

    My flush mount LED pods came in pretty quickly. Hope to have them in and wired up in the rear bumper within the next few days!

    How beneficial are the -4.88 Nitro Gears? I'm thinking about re-gearing my truck but don't think its all that necessary unless I decide (god forbid) to put on a massive lift...

    Depends what size tires you run. You can get away with not regearing with 33's (285's) but with 35's (315's) it is very necessary

    I absolutely love my 4.88's man. I feel like I've got a lot of my power back that I was lacking with stock gears and big tires. One of the biggest reasons I regeared was because I wanted to take care of my Transmission. Regearing will help the transmission because it won't have to work so hard to turn those larger tires. Going up large hills is awesome with the new gears too. Makes you feel like truck has very little effort going up the hill. Wheeling with them is great too. I would say that with 35's it's necessary because you're going to put a good amount of strain on your trans without them. Just my opinion.

    They're cheapies but they say they're Cree LED's and have great reviews. "NiLights" is the brand.

    No worries bro. On the reviews on Amazon, people said they were really nice. And for how cheap they were, I'm stoked.

    Yeah I think I'll give them a shot for that price. I'll figure out some shims to make them work straight on my stock bumper.

    It will be a while before I get a bad ass rear bumper like you're rocking!
