    Installed Chaos upper control arms. After installing the 3" ultimate lift kit and about 3000 miles later I noticed some uneven wear on my front tires. Never noticed any wandering or drifting only a little loose on the steering wheel. Anyways after I installed the UCA's I noticed an imediate positive change in the way she handles. Tomorrow to get her aligned..

    Anyone have any insight on how to easily de-badge? Makes it look so much cleaner, I just don't know how to go about doing it.

    to be honest I'm not really sure, I think one roll is enough to finish the back wall (only did one layer). bought two rolls previously and used some of the first roll for my front door panels (upgraded a while back to component speakers, but just did the door skin and panel surrounding the mid speaker), testing/misc. bs. so the picture of the PS roll on the sub box is how much I had left over from the first roll - the picture where I said I was half way done is how much the remaining first roll covered, that was down to the last bit. I used the second to finish up the rest (still have left overs but not enough to finish the sides imo).
    No smell at all, I have had it up front on my doors for about 1 yr. already and no smell. Will be getting more after my interior mod. so I can finish the cab at the least (the doors I will do later, since I'm not at that point yet), which I am estimating to be about (whole cab) 3/4 more rolls including the one I have left over.
    Hope that helps.

    alright, slow but sure progress. Not all happened today, but they are recent.

    First I love my ScanGauge II, but have never liked how it was mounted. It used to just sit on top of the steering column and blocked the bottom part of my gauge cluster. I solved that problem.

    [​IMG]

    It took 5 dollars worth of supplies and 10 minutes to complete. My fiance and I both agreed that it was way easier than we thought it would be.

    Supplies: 2 dollar store tape measures and some double sided tape.

    I took the clips off the tape measures and used the tape to stick them to the gauge. I pulled the A pillar off and ran the wire. I had to remove the visor to get enough flex in the roof liner, but once I had that off, everything slid into place. I like that it's out of the way and barely blocks any view, but is easy to read while driving down the road.

    Mod 2.

    I carry two dogs in the bed of my truck and the slipped and slid all around. I got this from my fiance's step dad.

    [​IMG]

    It came out of a Ranger, so the dimensions are off, but the effect is great. The dogs can walk and be comfortable back there now. Eventaually, I plan on redoing it with a piece off wood that fits perfectly and covering it with carpet pad and more comfortable material, as the dogs will be spending a lot of time back there during the summer.
