    Nice build! Were you able to keep your sway on with the BAMF skid?

    Yeah, he still has a sway bar on even though I keep threatening to pull it off.

    Yes the sway bar is in, but I also have an icon sway bar relocation bracket.

    Wonder if it will work with the king relocation bracket? I want to get the same skid but don't want to pull the sway bar. No sway and Deaver springs will make for a squirrelly ride on the highway. lol

    Between the shell and the bed rack, what do you prefer? I have been going back and forth between the two and can't decide...

    Agreed for the squirelly ride. How much does the king bracket move it forward? Take a picture and I'll take a picture and we can compare brackets lol.

    Honestly it was a question of versatility for me. The original purpose for the shell was for the dogs but they ride in the cab now. And I camp a lot over summer so it was an easy decision. I would just ask yourself what you what do you need each for and how often you'd use it.

    Haven't updated the build page in a long time and I've done so much to the truck since the last post. I'll update over a couple days, but for now I'll give some teasers for my high clearance rear to those who aren't following on IG or the "what have you done to your 2 Gen thread". Thanks as always to @Mademan925

    Got the exhaust rerouted, cut for the turndown, and a flow master put in at ABC muffler in Benicia awhile back too. They do some great work!

    The current project I am working on is my electrical relay and fuse box for the rig. Got the box all wired up and the Iggy switch panel ready to go just waiting on some minor parts here and there to put it all into the truck. This includes making my own relay/fuse box panel for the engine bay.

    Mocked up the panel for the electrical box in the engine bay. This one is just cardboard and tape with measurements for the real thing.

    Then I decided to go for it after my buddy Cam hooked me up with some free aluminum. So far there were some minor set backs like flex and bounce from the panel as the aluminum was too thin. This was fixed using a simple bracket though. Something else which could have been adjusted too was that my panel blocks the OEM fuse panel, soooo thats unfortunate but hey it was my first attempt.

    I might consider redesigning the metal panel in the future and will create a write up for people that want to make there own as well. It really wasn't hard. You just need the right tools and some spare time.

    Picked up the coleman grill and a 5lb propane tank that will be mounted to the pelfreybilt rear.

    Coated the swing out table with bed liner for a bit of more durability. While watching that paint dry, I also relocated my back up cam using the pelfreybilt off-road re-location mount.
