Now you need to customize the tiles at bottom for your uses.
Dropped my new bumper off for powder coating. Should be done in a couple weeks.
Nope,Appears they put holes in it to reuse the plastic piece below grill on factory bumper?
no wonder it looks different than mine lolyeah, wasn't sure if i was going to like them... been pretty happy with them so far.
i had the decked drawer system in my 2500 that i traded. couldn't wait to get it in the new truck. debating whether i want to put a tonneau cover on.
fuhhhhh i did not know that or else i'd wait. I just put my fox kit on today but i need to adjust it tomorrow. tonight truck sleeps at the shopI hit up Dirt King Fabrication. They will have their LT kit coming out late next year. Gives me time to save up. As far as the Rack and everything shifting, there's gotta be a way to secure it tightly.
I got all kinds of ideas running through my head. Decided the truck is going to stay the way it is and I'm going to build a dedicated off-road vehicle. Don't want to mess up my pretty truck lolfuhhhhh i did not know that or else i'd wait. I just put my fox kit on today but i need to adjust it tomorrow. tonight truck sleeps at the shop
hahaha i don't have a third parking space or else i'd do a dedicated off-road vehicle too. maybe when i move to TN or somewhere outside of commiefailnia then i can do that.I got all kinds of ideas running through my head.

I too would like to leave this state at some point. I have a 45 foot long driveway though so I can fit it. My wife may not like it lol.hahaha i don't have a third parking space or else i'd do a dedicated off-road vehicle too. maybe when i move to TN or somewhere outside of commiefailnia then i can do that.
right now garage is occupied by my e90 m3 that i use for cruising and clearing my head since that car has been my dream ride since 2009.
well one way to find outI too would like to leave this state at some point. I have a 45 foot long driveway though so I can fit it. My wife may not like it lol.
Another thing to check. If you changed UCAs, and you torqued the control arm bolts down while the truck was still in the air the don't will sit higher, but eventually settle. But it's hard on the UCA bushings. Always lower vehicle and compress suspension before torquing down your suspension bolts.Began the install for Fox kit today instead of tomorrow. I did the entire install in about 7 hours.

However, after I came down the lift one found one glaring issue:
View attachment 146667
Front is sitting high
View attachment 146666
Rear is sitting way too low. lower than before.
My guess is the front preload is too high, which in term pushes down the rear.
I highly doubt it is the rear spring issue, as I opted for the HD springs from Carli which, according to my email exchange with them, is more than enough to handle the weight of RTT, Decked, and Bed Rack.
I will take measurement tomorrow from floor to fender for the front and see if they are around 40". I will also check the boxes for Carli part numbers and hopefully they didn't send me the wrong part.
Edit: Upon further investigation and double checking the order, turned out shop ordered the standard coil instead of HD coils and I didn't catch it. Will try to remedy that tomorrow.
i haven't been looking too hard yet - but have thought about a rack. didn't think any of them would work with the ram boxes. found a tonneau cover i like the Truxedo Pro X15. might just go down that route....no wonder it looks different than mine lol
if you're not gonna do bed rack or anything then just put a cover on it i guess. if you gonna do bed rack there are some that works with covers but most don't

where do you live? I may be interested in the wheel tire package. assuming they are night editions.Finished up my lift and wheels/tires. Had to trim a little bit of plastic and zip tie a couple spots. Looks clean in my opinion though. Shout-out to @lapoolboy for the deal on the lift.
Still looking for someone to buy my OEM wheels and Nitto tires....
If your thermostat is working properly, you shouldn't see any difference in engine tempsReinstalled my active grill shutters in anticipation of the upcoming ice and salt parade. Only took an hour start to finish, but I somehow feel it went quicker when I removed them. I did see slightly lower temps when it was really hot out, but I don't know if it was enough to warrant removing them again next year. Guess we'll see how bored I am when Spring comes around
The way your truck sits I thought is was 2wd. Nice stance
