    Gunna hit 70k in 500 miles, I'll do plugs, clean throttle body, change oil & gear oil. I got a tire out of balance and it's been on the rear and it's time to rotate so I need to have them balanced soon. Something going on with my steering also. Everything checks out but I need to pin point the issue. No mods for a bit. Been working 6/10s all month so after the holidays I'll get a chance to tackle all this. Your show lookin clean as always!:thumbsup:

    Hope everyone had a great holiday season! Got a couple things for the truck. Front weather techs to match the rear ( no pics ) everyone knows what they look like.

    Swapped my HID fogs for LED. They are equally offensive but the HIDs were 6 yrs old and take a while to warm up after you hit the switch


    Got a battery power pack jump starter. There are sooo many to choose from. This one can jump a 6.5 gas or 5.0 Diesel engine 20 times before charging. Plus has all the other options.

    You have any before/afters from the OEM vs. Pelfreybilt sliders?
    Pelfrey's look good under there though!

    Where's the base to your hi-lift?

    Every 15k... I thought it was every 30k miles?
    Maybe I need to go back and re-read the service manual :anonymous:

    Oh— yeah I definitely meant sliders, whoops.

    You keep it in the tool box just to keep a cleaner look, so it doesn’t stick out, or is there another reason?

    Dude no worries, life gets crazy for everyone

    Honestly I've never had to use it. Knock on wood. It does stick out and The mounts I'm using work better with it off. It stays nice and snug with the base off. It's just a u clip that it attaches to.

    Finally built some some attic storage. Been wanting to do this for years
    Cost me less than $500 total and that's with the ladder ($180)and had to buy a new drill after the first day of work($100). Took me about 3 weeks in my spare time:thumbsup:

    Then went at it
