Thanks! I like them much better that the 16's. You don't see these wheels that often!

 

Nice looking SCREW! What type of bed liner is that??

 

The bed liner is Duplicolor Bed Armour

This was in Vermont this weekend at the Northeast Overland Rally & Workshop

 

Project for this weekend...

 

nice looking rig and great choice of mods.

only thing I would change would be to paint the roof rack black. minor detail.

Thanks!

The problem with painting it are the channels in it...you can slide bolts through them to move, adjust, or add things. I was playing around with mounting the hi lift on it...



This week I got fuel tank, transfer case, and front diff skids installed. And a steering stabilizer...

 

I was thinking a thin coat of rattlecan satin black. Shouldn't interfere with the slots and would be easy to touch up. I can see you put a lot of thought into your mods and the rack/tent is no exception - its all good.

On mine, I mounted a jack and a shovel inside the bed on the bed sides. A hassle to get out when the bed is full of gear, but at least the extra weight of the jack is down low.

I had a topper similar to yours (see gallery) but sold it because it was soo heavy. My crew handled really poorly with a 400lb+ topper. Now I'm looking for a lighter one. My worn-out Monroe Monotubes probably didn't help much either.

 

Looking at your truck I agree with the black rack...LOL! I like the solid true blue! I haven't deciced if the jack is going up there or not because of the weight...I bought my truck used with the cap and don't notice to much difference from the ones I drove with out them. I worried about the tent up that high but again not much difference...other than mileage...looking at building a air dam to get the air over the tent. I do have Bilsteins and urethane bushings which I put on the truck when I got it...that did stiffen things up

 

Thanks! I recently did PTM on the bumper cover, so only the flares are grey.

One of my sway bar links broke a few months ago. So just like you, I replaced the sway bar bushings and links with poly all around. That helped tighten up the front end and get rid of a lot of squeaks and rattles. Guess I better put Bilsteins on my x-mas list.
