    Got the call today. Truck is ready for pick-up tomorrow with @JLee's Shock relocation burned in. Already threw on the front suspension so tomorrow should have the whole truck completely dialed in the suspension department.

    Super stoked.

    Yeah man. Taking the train to pick it up tomorrow. Been collecting the parts for months. So excited to see it all come together. Feels better than the old way of instant gratification on Bilstein 5100s haha

    Removed the retractable Tonneau. Getting ready for the new bed rack set up and it was not operating correctly at all. Really like the open bed actually.

    Tomorrow is gonna be a good day! Prinsu Rack going on, @mesojdm switch panel wiring up to some lightbars, and wiring/mounting the CB with @GHOST SHIP

    Would actually be fun! I'm going to Europe in about a week (damn, didn't realize that was coming up so fast), so I can't really swing more time off work, but I'll see if it's worth the weekend trip.

    Yeah I meant to ask how you are liking them! My rear end is a little stiff right now. The Icon leaf pack set up I did is for carrying around 200lbs all the time as opposed to empty because its not a daily driver. I'm sure once I load it up to go camping, it will ride really nice.

    @GHOST SHIP spent an absurd amount of time yesterday teaching me some tricks and wiring up a fuse block and switch panel. Seriously stoked on how much help he’s given me lately.

    Took the truck off-road today for the first time up in the mountains of Sb. Was thinking I’d air down and see how it performs. Suspension was so smooth after the first bit that I didn’t even feel necessary to air down. Could not be happier with how it’s coming along.

    Along with the wiring, set up the roof rack and bars yesterday.

    What is the spec on your F5s? Are those -10 or -38 offset?

    Check My Sig.
    Did you end up sticking with the BAMF relocation? What shocks did you go with?
