    So I got the accessrac and upgraded all the bars to HD Black Bars. It comes with 5. Zack told me that that would be plenty strong enough for a rtt.

    Then I got the side rails and deflector only powdercoated since the bars were already black.

    My total price was somewhere in the 560-600 region after shipping. I forgot the exact number.

    His racks are tough. The HD bars are super strong. You'll need them to hold a tent.

    Some people I've seen buy 5 extra bars for weight diffusion but Zach said that I would be fine with 5 and I was.

    Looks good too. Just wish I had saved for a heretic light bar too! Can't afford it but damn it looks cool up on the deflector!

    Just added a poll. Should I lose my Taillight guards? I'll be getting a new bumper sometime with a swing out and think that they won't look too great with it.

    If you want to buy them from me, give me an offer.

    I kinda like them honestly, if they aren't that important to you then you could sell them and use the money for other things?

    I like them. I think they make the truck look a bit beefier but I don't think they will fit with my swongout.

    :spy:

    What I did is call tire shops and ask if they have an used ones in stock in the same size. Doesn't truly matter if its the same tire, unless your OCD crazy like me

    Both a great and awful decision at the same time. I love my tires and they are great but they sure carry a price tag.

    Exactly. I loved their traction but the price and weight sent me looking for other tires

    Alright I'm selling them to get some extra cash for some other mods.

    I'm gonna list them as 60 OBO.

    They are SteelCraft brand and retail for about 95. They are in perfect condition but I painted the original gloss black finish with matte clearcoat so that it would match all the matte black on my truck.

    Let me know if you are interested.

    Finally got a full size spare. Anybody looking to buy my stock spare? Never touched until I took it off the truck today.
