Thats my exact truck. Custom Sport Plus.. Minus the graphics and orange tow hooks. Mine is a Z71, so my grille is black with chrome bars...

Do you work for some sort of emergency service?

Finally got around to installing an aux. power block I had originally built for the jeep commander I used to have:

 

AUX Power1

AUX Power

- 4 switched + fused lines
- 2 fused lines
When it is all said and done the whole thing will run through a keyed relay. I still need to finish up a couple odds and ends such as connecting up the primary power and ground, running a fuse tap to the main relay and shrink wrapping a couple things.
Two of the three grey deutsch connectors (4 pin, 2 pin) are outputs providing connections to whatever I want to power. The third (4 pin) connector will lead to in cab switches. Hopefully this will allow for easy removal when/if the need comes up. The mounting plate was cut to fit and velcroed in place so that it will hopefully be easy to move for air filter changes.

Thats intense! What all do you plan to power with it?

Finally got her aligned and had the TPMS reset for my new setup. They showed me the paper saying it was properly aligned but the steering has to be turned to the right to drive straight..kinda odd I think. But I also finally washed her up and took a couple pics of the new setup with my DSLR.

Thanks! Honestly, I'm not 100% certain. I knew when I started out I wanted it to be relatively modular and give me some room to grow so I added more capacity than I had/have the need for. At some point I'm going to add a compressor to adjust the air bags I installed, I will be adding additional reverse lights and possibly another set of front fogs and I've had some ideas kicking around for powered goodies on my trailer as well. I just didn't want to have a bunch of wires and relays strung out everywhere and this keeps it a bit neater. Dunno where it will lead but I'll likely be starting with set of reverse lights.

What lift are you running with that wheel and tire setup? I checked out your build thread but didn't see any recent updates. Looks awesome!

What air bags did you go with?? Thinking about them after my level.... Had about 8 cinder blocks in the bed yesterday and it squatted a little. I'm scared I'm gonna look like one of those 18 year old kids with their bumper dragging the ground if I put anymore back there. [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji12] [emoji33]

I ended up installing the Load Lifter 500's. They are the ones that have the internal jounce bumpers so that if you lose pressure you still have some "protection" so to speak

 

LoadLifter

So far I love them. I run the recommended minimum 10psi when I am not towing/hauling and I've only noticed a very minor increase in stiffness. On the other hand I've towed 8K with my truck both before and after the air bags and they are one heck of a nice upgrade. The help make for a much more stable towing platform. One of the reason's I got them was that at some point I am likely going to do a level and didn't want to be nose up while towing.

It's called "Carolina Squat", "Carolina Squattn'", or "Carolina Struttin'". My favorite term though is "dog dragging ass" [emoji23] [emoji23]
