    It's where I had mine on my last truck, and it worked great! Easy to install and out of everyones way.
    Buffalo wild wings! Not sure if that's what you're talking about, but I enjoy their wings. Thursday is $0.60 bonless, so my wife and I always get some!

    So it seems like it's allllways something with this truck. Turns out, in order to balance the wheel a certain adapter is needed. The tire place I went to this morning didn't have it, and referred me elsewhere. I called about 5-6 different places, and none of them could squeeze me in today. :annoyed: Luckily one place was able to fit me in at 3, so hopefully that can get it all up to snuff. If not, I'm not going to be able to go wheeling tomorrow since it's 2.5 hours away, and I'm not limping along at 55mph that whole way.

    Thanks it works good but I've figured out for my needs a best top will fit better. For hunting it'll let me keep some gear out of the weather

    On my last truck, I fab'd up a little plate that stuck to the dash using double sided tape, but in this truck the airbag turn off thing is in the way. What I'll probably do is use that RAM mount holder on the passenger side and try and whip something up.

    I believe it requires a hub centric adapter for the balancer. I have run into that problem too when having my tires balanced. They can do it without, but the results are so much better when the have the right adapter. Luckily my go to shop just replaced their tire balancer and it either came with the right adapter or they purchased it in addition. They run so much smoother now!

    Whipped up a mount for my mic. It's not winning any awards, but it works.

    It's getting there! Antenna arrived too, so now I'm just waiting on my spring. About to head to the tire place, so fingers crossed they can balance my tires.

    PHEW! This place balanced the tires just fine. Smooth as glass at 65mph. So glad I can go wheeling tomorrow.
