  1. It's a useful mod for people who like to mount amps to the back wall. Out of the way, yet can still fold the seat back down to adjust easily. That's what I'm doing it for, my amps are under the seat now, kinda in the way.
  2. I recently installed Havoc HS2 bars. A little more step area compared to N-Fab. Very solid too. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
  3. Chemical guys sells wrap detailer. Spray on with uv protection. I'm about to get my roof wrapped, will be ordering some soon.
  4. I just turned 20k on my '14, sad, sad day. No real problems, just a transmission I can't stand. Would also like some feedback on high mileage trucks.
  5. You'll be fine if ya set 'em at the 1st lift setting, 5/8 I believe. I had mine set at the 3rd notch which gave me almost an 1 1/2 lift. I added a lower shock spacer for another inch, didn't ride much different. I now have Fox 2.0 coilovers set at 2" of lift, and honestly a little disappointed in the ride, not as plush as I was hoping.
  6. I put a Sundown SD-3 12" (5" mounting depth) under my rear seat in a box I made, sounds great and fits well. The 10" version is more shallow and should sound just as good.
  7. When I mod my truck, I'm not looking for a return on my investment money wise, I'm personalizing it to what "I" like. The satisfaction from the effort I invest while installing said mod is all the return I need...
  8. Not a real big fan of Fuel wheels, but the dark tint looks great with your truck color! Truck looks real clean... Def. post up some pics of your lightbar, probably get me one soon too. Here ya go...
  9. I'll try and post some pics later when I get home. I baked them to get em open, the hardest part is cleaning the channel out of the old permaseal, stuff is tuff! I think the only tabs I had to grind off were for the turn signal reflectors, and I used a little jb weld to set em back. I just ordered clear reflectors from Clearz with switchback bulbs and outline halos from led concepts. Probably paint the inside near the projector silver for some contrast. Too much black now, everyone asks if I have light covers on...
  10. The light is the mount. Just had to drill a hole up top and bolt it up. Had to add a thin piece of Al. flat bar on top on the inside of the tow hook area to keep the light from flexing. Mictuning 4.5" lights from Amazon...spot beam pattern, adds alittle extra light downroad with my highbeams.
  11. Thanks man! No cutting involved, the beauty of lifting a 2wd truck. Simple lift spindle and coilover lift. I did cut the air dam, but that's just for looks
  12. Nice trucks everyone!! Here's mine, recently added some Fox 2.0 coilovers in the front set at 2.5" to go with my 3" lift spindles. The rear has a 3.5" block with Bilstein 5100's. 295/60 Nitto G2's on 20x9 +12 wheels.
  13. I have my Bilstein's set at the 3rd highest setting, and while not bad, I was hoping for alittle smoother over rough/patchy type roads we have here in south Louisiana. I plan on setting them down to first setting/no lift, and adding a 1 1/2" lower shock spacer I have. If it still rides ruff, I'll pull the spacer and add a zone body lift for the 1 1/2". I have 3" lift spindles, and want 4.5"-5" overall with a smooth ride. It has to be possible! My buddy has a 2013 FX4 with the same tires as me (BFG KO2) with his shocks set at the highest setting, and his truck rides much better than mine. Mine's a 2wd with 8000 miles and his is 4wd with 65,000 miles.
