    I'll check tonight and let you know. I may be working for my father this weekend but if not I can definitely stop by! Which bumper did you get?
    I really like them. Very plush. Ride better than my AAL did for sure.

    CBI high clearance, so fender cutting. Yikes! Need some moral support. And muscles.

    I'll let you know soon if I'm home. Hoping I am to see that new bumper installed. I couldn't bring myself to cut my bedsides!

    I'm removing the stock rear bumper and cutting fenders on Sat., then installing the new bumper on Sun. I have a friend for Sun., but if you want to hold my hand on Sat that would be great!

    I should be around for a few hours that I can stop by and help. My parents need me for a bit but I should be good.

    On another note, are there any pics of trucks on here with Plastidipped tailgate? Mine is super scratched up and it bothers me. I figured dip wouldn't look bad since it is behind my swing out most of the time.

    Was wiring up my CB today. Still not sure how I should mount the radio in my cab. Went from the BAMF CB mount through my taillight and ran the coax cable under the truck along the frame. Bad pic because I just finished.

    Thanks! I still gotta buy a switch and fuse block before wiring it up. So far just the coax and antenna is set up. I think it looks good back there!

    Today when I was at Turners, I saw a car audio place in the same shopping center so I stopped in and asked if they had fuse blocks. They grabbed one out of the back and got me hooked up with some quality wire and connectors. Now my light bar and bed lights are wired through it. I also grabbed an Add a fuse kit to redo all the lighting on my switches.

    Can't wait to get my rats nest of wires all cleaned up. Already starting to feel more organized.
