Removed my tow hooks and painted them red.

I’ll install them tomorrow when the paint dries.

Trimmed lower section off of license plate and mounted my LEDS reverse light back on it. (This allowed me to drop license plate roughly 1/2" as seen in pic), No tailgate rubbing issues now. My driveway drops off at steep angle right at rear of bumper. Flat ground, you would have had a little more light just below the bumper, but not right up to it. Still have a cut off line of light.

and my radio has been playing dual audio sources at the same time

Mine did this a few times last week as well. It was strange as one source was spotify and the other was XM radio. The XM wasn't from one of the presets but appears to be the XM non-subscription channel. Rebooted my phone and it cleared up.

Finally got my lift and new shoes. I think I am one of the few that went from 22in wheels down to 18s but I think it looks awesome. I added the Mopar 2" lift, Mopar 1" spacers in the front, Mopar 18" bead lock wheel color matched and 35/12.5/18 BF Goodrich KO2s. I totally forgot about the lug nuts so I need to order black ones.

(have the premium 22in wheels for sale with only 5k miles on them)

Can you expand on your racks please? The rear in particular looks like it may sit into the stake pockets.

Thanks
I made the rear rack to fit into the rear stake pockets. It’s then bolted down thru the front side of the pocket. Works great for my kayak and paddle board.

Nice work!

I used to carry ladders all the time, but now I only carry them a few times per year. So Im leaning toward a simpler ladder rack setup that is quickly removed.

I liked your idea of using the rear stake pockets, and I see BACK RACK now has a "rear bar" they offer. It simply slides into the rear stake pockets for quick install/removal. This along with a simple single roof rack/cross bar will be a nice solution for long items. Should still allow for flush tonneau operation too.

Looks awesome. My OCD is suggesting black license plate screws though ;)
Not a bad call. I don't notice them what with Ohio's bright plates. Having an all black truck with white plates and blue/red lettering is irritating. Next year we get to take the front plate off as it will be longer be required.
