Official Delmonico Red thread

I had to move a work bench in order for it to fit. When the garage is closed I have 1.5 feet between the wall and the front bumper and literally 6” from the back bumper to the garage door .

2 in Rough Country level completed today. 35x12.50r22 going on the stock rims tomorrow morning.

Got a great deal on Milestar Patagonia from Walmart. I did some research and they have great reviews for the price. https://www.walmart.com/ip/35X12-50R22LT-121Q-F-12-BW-MILESTAR-PATAGONIA-M-T/648283827
I got them for 187, they are now 185 a tire. So cheap Discount Tire wouldn't even match the price.
You've got a great looking truck, but these pictures just confirm for me that I like a little rake. I could maybe do a 1" level at most. Thanks for sharing.

Looks good! Pretty much same direction I’ve gone. I need to post new pics of mine since I changed out the badges on the grill,hood,and tailgate. I also removed door emblems and bighorn emblem on tailgate. This pic is a little dark but you can see the progress.

My dealer gives you 1 car wash a week for life. But they will never see me go trough it. Do you have any laser washes in your area?

here in upstate ny they do it by hand(look like a 5yr done it)
 
RAMayor,

The choices your making are definitely adding to the already great design of these new 2019’s. I have got to be careful. My avatar name was not by mistake. Seems like we all might suffer from the affliction! I just added some 20x9 +25 wheels to mine.5A0E5B03-D0BF-4183-A50A-B35182C6BB8D.jpeg
 
I got the ultra flex trifold hard cover installed and the OEM “off-road” side steps. The cover got a little spotted today from the rain.

I like the look of those wheels. What brand/type of wheels are those? Are the tires original?

Thanks. These are MB Wheels. You can get them at discount tire. They are MBMTKO’s. The tires are factory for now. I figure I will get the mileage out of them and then pick what I want come time for new tires.

Finally got around to swapping out the chrome center and lugs on the stock 22s.

Contemplating plastidipping the rest of the chrome on the rim...

Vvivid vinyl air tint smoke headlight tint. Did the rear cabin light, mirror turn signals and headlights. Very easy to work with, but I really have no basis for a comparison because this was my first experience w vinyl or tint. This color (smoke) barely affects light production and still lets you see those beautiful LEDs in the right light.

Check out CK Wraps on YouTube, he swears by this stuff and convinced me to use it. He has a video where he does an f-150 headlight and shows the negligible difference in light production between tinted and not.

Love the steps. What do those run if you don’t mind me asking?
