    Also found a loose UCA bolt :eek: while greasing...so re-torqued all suspension components

    Greased all 23 Zerk fittings, Changed the oil, full detail including wax.

    Had wheels re-balanced, one was 10oz's out.:confused:

    Had thoughts of replacing my wheel bearing myself as well but ultimately had dealer do it since I had 25% off coupon and didn't want to miss my T-time.

    Yes.
    I ordered a set of fancy mirrors for my truck from Trail Toys.

    And showed off my radio gear to a bunch of folks at the Texas Avid Outdoors show, while parked next to the Pronghorn Overland Gear table.

    My stereo 'upgrade' ended up being a little more intensive than originally planned. ( never happens right? ) I WAS gonna just add line out converter and 2x10" subs and an amp. Once I got into the dash, my buddy that was assisting with the install pressured me into replacing the head unit. I went and bought a Pioneer AVH-4100NEX with Apple Car Play. What a great decision. I love it!. Routed the mic into the factory location through the A pillar and into the overhead console. Still need to get the adapter for the backup camera but all in all...it went well. I'll post a few pics in my build thread later.

    I have the 50 inch curved. Slight whistle but you get used to it. it all depends on the angle you set it on and if you have a hood scoop.

    Hey Taczilla, just to let you know the Cali Raised are awesome quality! They have light and bracket kits that you can order directly from the site as well.http://caliraisedled.bigcartel.com/ (I would just order as a set with the brackets.)

    Rago fab include paper instructions step by step for installation, not to mention the Cali raised video instructions on you tube is a must watch before installing.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8Ddg2QLyys

    Super fast shipping and great customer service!
    @Jake Long15 answered all the questions I had
