    Thanks for the sig pic. :thumbsup: got back from Pittsburgh around midnight last night. Very pleased with how the truck did on the trip, rode great and the snorkel was a great improvement for mileage. Will certainly pay for itself.

    I think the next things on my list are some hood struts and a good tool kit. I've been looking for a good set of tools for a while but can't bring myself to pay ~$150 for a set that has some of this, a couple of these, and a handful of these basically making a half complete set so I've decided to just make up my own tool kit of just the stuff I want in it and also making those complete sets of those items. Should start the tool collection this week :spy:

    :cool: :thumbsup: if you haven't done much wheeling, URE is a great place to gain experience, especially with TW folks.

    I luckily did not have any problems with the install because I was very cautious and checked the measurements and holes for drilling/screwing/riveting about 10 times before actually doing something. I did forget to pull the painter's tape (for marking) from one side underneath the bracket before riveting. :eek:
