    I honestly don’t know who makes mine. They came with the LT kits from TC. But I will buy spares.

    As long as they don’t have that uber long support, they should be fine. But, a $10 part store line is a good thing to have on hand for sure.

    Hey bud. I'm looking into a good GPS system for the truck that can take a beating from jumps :p Just doing research right now. What would you recommend?

    Oh yeah, something a caveman can use :homer:

    I'm not too tech savvy yet, I have an old Garmin Nuvi GPS that works pretty well around here, a lot of the the trails are FS and are on it, but there are still plenty that are not. I hope to pickup a tablet this spring and set it up for nav, there is a Funtreks download that you can interact with on a device, and then for general maps, I think there are a few threads with recommendations, I don't recall the names off the top of my head, but do a little searching and you can find them.

    Damb that is a hack job you did there. Are you still thinking fiberglass or are you sticking with stock fenders for now.

    Got everything chopped out and the the new body connection plated. First wrapped it in 14 ga, then plated the front section with 10 ga. Should get everything reloacated today and then putt the rad support for final welding and some paint. Doing a few cool things with relocating stuff, including a battery box welded to the frame and tucking the fuse box up and out of the way.

    Mostly done, ended up with some hood bling.
