What did you pay? And does it interfere with the rambox lids?
0 interference. $1619. Not cheap, but a fair deal over what others are asking. Note, hidden cost, if you are like me and had the factory tonneau (night edition), you will need to buy the factory silver rails to install. Additional $300.

After 4 oil changes I finally got tired of coating the sway bar and splashing oil everywhere so this time I installed a ValvoMax drain plug:

Next time I'll only have to deal with the filter dripping everywhere.

I never considered using one before as my last truck had the drain bolt on the very bottom of the pan leaving it exposed for damage, especially if I put a larger assembly in place of the bolt.

Between Fumoto and ValvoMax I felt more comfortable and confident about the ValvoMax so went that direction.

Got my baby back from getting tint & the spray in liner… bed looks great but the gouges in my bumper and scratched up tail light left me a bit ticked off so grabbed my wheel well liners and put them in myself since the dealership obviously can’t be trusted then added the husky flaps…
Now the wait for her other goodies to come in the mail… luckily the ups man understands the excitement of new goodies for my new toy… the fedex guy on the other hand might be considering having me committed 🤷‍♀️

It looks great, I have the same color but wish I had gotten a crew cab instead of the quad but can't complain lol.

I got a little too giddy over the black lug nuts he brought… he asked what was in the package… the look on his face given the response was filled with soo much judgment Teehee

Do you have any pics of the Husky mud flaps? My dealer had a set of the WeatherTech mud flaps on his truck and they looked pretty good, but I haven't seen the Husky's yet.

Mud guards if you want to get technical but same difference in my opinion lol
I saw the Wt ones just think these offer better protection based on reviews (yeah I’m one of those) they do need the ‘optional’ screw so itty bitty drilling required

I'm the same way. I do a lot a research before buying something. Those look like a cleaner fit than the WT's. Thanks for the pics.

Completed the installation of my RetraxPro MX today. Love it! View attachment 102420
Nice! You have the same setup as me. Did you have any issues with the install? I had to take off the Retrax rail caps that came with the cover to get the tailgate shut. I think if I trim them it will work. Also I have too much of a gap where the side of the truck meets the tailgate both verticaly and horizontally. I need to to figure out how to seal that. Finally the tubes from the canister are too short and I need to find some tubing from the hardware store. You? I havent reached out to Retax customer service yet.

I just ordered the Husky Mud Guard set through Amazon for $60 and I added the ES Engineered stake pocket covers. I used my Discover Card Cashback Bonus so both items were free. :)
