Perfect thank you, As soon as the snow melts a bit I will go measure my factory ones and that will give me the number I need. Thx againI went and measured the step height and it pretty much splits the difference between ground and door sill....about 10 inches below the sill.

About 10 days total. But he is based out of California so your turnaround time will vary based on shipping speed. Mine were 3 days to get to him and took 3 days for me to get them back. So if you pay for a more expedited shipping you could get them to him and back even faster.What was the turnaround time?
It's happened to me in my Challenger when i was an hour away from home, and it could not be flushed out with the radio either. The radio would make it louder it seamed. Drove about 15 min with it on but could not bear the sound. I pulled over and just tried all sorts of combination of things with the car off, pressing the break a few times than gas starting and stopping the engine, opening and closing the door. and after a few different tried started the car and sound went away. I obviously don't know what fixed it but I remember it started while I was backing up on to something, but this time the sound did not go away it. Anyhow it never happened again in over a year so it may just be a one-time thing for you. This whole experience probably does not help you but just try disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, and powerwash your sensors.I’m sitting at the dealership because my parking sensor went off and never stopped. Just a high pitched noise that never stops. They can’t figure it out.

How do you like the Undercover Armorflex? ANy leaks at the tailgate gaps?
I think a cubic yard of pea gravel or sand weighs like 2500-3200 lbs so you definitely had some weight! I hauled a full ton (50 bags of 40# each) of wood stove pellets in my Rebel with air suspension and had an "air suspension" light on dash for a couple miles, then went off. I think 1370 lbs is what sticker in door says for load capacity including occupants. Let's see....2000 lbs plus 50 lbs tools plus 250 lbs of my fat a$$........... Whoops! Only over by a 1000 lbs lol ...OEM tires are husky on Rebels so that isn't an issue Here are pics of how air suspension remained at normal ride height. Top picture is empty truck.I hauled a load for the first time... Supposed to be a half ton of pea gravel but they did absolutely no weighing just filled me up and said that’s probably a little over half a ton. Truck handled it just fine if course.
I got that suspension warning light too! For my whole trip though but I only had to go a few miles and you wouldn’t have even known I was loaded down. Truck road even better with all of that weight in the bed.I think a cubic yard of pea gravel or sand weighs like 2500-3200 lbs so you definitely had some weight!

I agree exactly! Someone in the "air suspension" threads said that excessive weight does drive air pressure in bags to their design limits so not sure if it would be a good idea to overload on a regular basis. I usually use a husky tandem axle 14' utility trailer for heavier hauls but was lazy, and it was cold out, and pellet stove was hungry. I am really good at excuses....lolI got that suspension warning light too! For my whole trip though but I only had to go a few miles and you wouldn’t have even known I was loaded down.

Personally, I think a gloss black would look better. The matte just clashes with the rest of the truck.
Added the deflector
I’m not sure if I like it yet

Seems like all of that would give someone reason to break into your truck. Not worried?
I am glad you shared your opinion. Personally, I think the gloss black would have looked worse, I like the matte finish.Personally, I think a gloss black would look better. The matte just clashes with the rest of the truck.
