Sprayed the bed with Raptor
Will see how it looks in the sun tomorrow
That looks really really good. Presuming you used that cheapest Harbor Freight air sprayer right? Any tips on how to make that cheap sprayer work well?

That may just be the difference in weather conditions (temp, humidity...etc.) VERY hard to state what you stated above because there are WAY too many variables involved.
It was the same day within 2 hours of each other on the same road. Not that many different variables so pretty easy to state what i did.

How close does the bedstep sit next to the exhaust pipe? I have the magnaflow exhaust and the exhaust tips are bigger than stock. I am weary that the bedstep wont fit because of them.
Here’s two pics. About 1.5” between the edge of the step pad and the exhaust tip. Little closer between the pipe and the step frame. Maybe 1 - 1.25”.

This past week I picked up the Ram from Koon's and drove home to Atlanta. Changed the tires from Wildpeak AT to Bridgestone Alenza and bought the lifetime alignment. Also installed the Ram slushmats and changed the high mount lights to led. Wrestled with the install of the Tazer and changed a few settings. Really like the mirror auto fold option and nav use while moving. Expel install and window tint appointment for Monday. Loving the truck so far!

@Rampat ...you activate the feature and, if your truck has the folding mirror option, it will fold when you turn off the ignition and then open once you start the truck. I like this feature the best!

I used the one that comes in the Raptor
Kits but I purchased the gun separate
I will look later and see what pressure I was spraying at
If you buy the gun separate you can get them with a air guage and valve
SEE above

I know everybody is blacking everything out but my son has joined the Marine Corp so I am feeling extremely patriotic. View attachment 21332

When he earns that eagle globe and anchor, walks across that parade deck and you shake his hand,

He will stand taller, look you in the eye and be apart of the finest fighting force the world has ever seen.

Post up when that happens and I send him a Semper Fi in spirit.

I’m proud to see the next generation of warfighters raise their hand. Thank you for sharing, you should be proud!!!

Installed the ham radio. Running the cables was a lot easier in this vehicle than my last truck. Faceplate blends in, but the radio placement was not easy. Still looking for a better alternative.

Would be interested in knowing the radio model and seeing how you have everything installed. Looking at buying and installing one for overlanding.
