Thanks man. Appreciate the help.

I have zero clearance issues. Had slight rub with front Husky splash guards but removed them.

I do run BORA spacers so that helped avoid clearance issues.
With that being said ( adding washers ) would you feel comfortable pulling or being pulled from those hooks now??
Yeah, totally. The washers were added under the OEM flange nuts that these brackets go underneath that attach the bumper to the frame. When tightening these flange nuts, they wanted to pull into the hole, so I added some thick flat washers to avoid that. In the situation from pulling or being pulled, the force is in the opposite direction. So, no worries.
Forgive me for questioning, but don’t all our hitches already have a place for hook attachments? It would seem simpler (in my mind) to just add a shackle hitch receiver for recovery like this ($52CAD). Not that your setup may add additional merits I’m unaware of. What’s the breaking point of those hooks? Typically, Ram tow hooks are only rated for up to 5500 lbs.
That is another option. I like having options for a recovery point attachment.
Played 6 games as a pick up but brought home 2nd place. The little one just started competition cheer as well. So the poor truck is only getting mandatory parts for the foreseeable future lol.Nonsense, I've used the "it would be easier to haul the gear" excuse for parts lol added bed lights and the wife loved lighting up the bed during the winter late games lolI should've gotten pictures but the truck has started it's new duty as a Softball Travel Hauler for the family as my oldest begins her travel ball career.
i see this going from an open bed to a bed with cover, then eventually a camper gonna go on top for more secure storage.I should've gotten pictures but the truck has started it's new duty as a Softball Travel Hauler for the family as my oldest begins her travel ball career.

Why not just get rid of the cats all together at that point?
Depends on where he lives. If he lives in an area like I do, only need a visual inspection to pass. This would check that box, if he needed yearly inspections.
Could just knock the guts out of the factory cats. Cheaper ways to do it. If there is no sniff check, then it doesn't matter. And most aftermarket high flow cats won't even pass sniff test, and don't even help performance that much
Good thing I don't have tiktok
This was the best option for a bolt on exhaust. I like doing my own work and Im going to put on shorty headers myself right too soon. I woulda got long tubes if they had a full bolt on kit. T
