  1. Haha it was kinda of a pain to get all the mud off from underneath but worth it. Just used the electrical pressure washer and laid down to the truck and sprayed it down. Truck is all cleaned up now and couldn't even tell it was off roading this last weekend.
  2. Went out to last weekend to an offroad event held by Avants at DirtFish's course. Here is a few photos. Overall, the truck felt great. I was taking it a little slower compared to the other trucks but was getting more comfortable towards the end of the session.
  3. A few more photos from Saturday
  4. Thank you, it was a lot of fun. There was 60% raptors there. One thing is that with a crew cab and standard bed, the truck did feel a little tight going around some corners. More photos:
  5. Played in the dirt today on an off road course Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. They fit snugly. I did have to cut one layer around because of the depth of the cap but its on very well.
  7. Added caps to the ready lift upper control arms (2 Pack) 2 1/2 Inch (2.5") OD Round Plastic Plug,(8-12Ga for ID 2.17-2.28") Pipe Tubing End Cap, Durable Chair Glide Plug | to Fit Round Tube Size OD 2.500 Inch | Wall Thickness .165" -.109" | by SB https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H7R7WHY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_GKPDGCYDN9XQEW9ZKA72?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Interesting, I just put a set on from the stock Good years and they are way quieter than the Good years. Don't really even hear them until I'm like going 70 & I have no music playing. Maybe they've updated them 35X12.5R18
  9. Toyo Open County R/T is a solid choice as well. I've had them on for about 1k miles and they are awesome. Way quieter than the stock Goodyears.
  10. New baby announcement, trail boss version
  11. Congratulations! Post some pictures when you can!
  12. Got an updated signature logo with new look. Thinking about making some stickers of this as well.
  13. They were black from the factory.
  14. Officially no more chrome left on the truck. Went ahead and removed the muffler tips and sprayed them with high-temp paint for a matte black look. Getting them off and on was such a pain because of how tight of an area there is to get the 3 bolts out from each side. Used a 10mm socket wrench for it. Especially hard if you have bigger hands like I do. As for the paint it self, I wiped them clean, used some 80 sand paper to prep for paint. Sprayed a light first coat followed up 3 heavy coats. I waited about 10-15 mins before each coat. Then a few hours to let the tips dry. Installing them was worst than removing it because of trying to get the first couple of threads on by hand was a pain. Eventually got it and am very happy with the results. I'll take some proper photos sometime next week.
  15. Finally got around to doing this, officially no more chrome left on the truck. Went ahead and removed the muffler tips and sprayed them with high-temp paint for a matte black look.

  16. That's awesome. Congratulations!
  17. Friend playing around in photoshop made this
  18. Friend did a cool edit of the truck
  19. Had the truck in the garage today and it measured 80 inches (6 foot 8 inches). That’s with the 2” kit and 35’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. I haven't measured but I know its pretty close and I have a 8' garage door. Next time I got the truck in it, I'll try to measure it.
  21. I'd recommend it. Its very useful. I already had a bunch of stuff under neath my rear seats so I moved it to the truck bed for some additional storage. Such as some tools, tow straps, etc.. The little tray is also very helpful for tape or glue. No concerns, Just measure twice, or even three times. I would recommend using a drill. What I did was is use one screw on the back plate and then one screw for the other bracket. PS if you notice on the black plate, there is a black plug that you line up to an existing hole in the truck bed (this is the starting point). Made sure they lined up and the box opens and closed without any issues. Then tighten those two bolts and then do the other 5 bolts.
