You gotta put up some vids, though I ain't gonna do it, that is cool as heck!

Anything above 90 degrees I can tell I’m down at least 30-50hp…. IAT is usually in the 110-115 cruising around. By the time I do a quick pull it’s already at 135-145….. that’s no bueno. 1
dieselfan1 Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Boost Auto Tow Mirrors. $500 Basic setup. Chrome, Amber front turn signals. Heated top glass. Power adjustable manual fold high output cargo/reverse. Plug and play. All I needed to do on these was add 4 wires to each harness. Not too bad. You tube video explains each step in depth. Makes the truck look like it means business now. 5
boettcher40 Posted August 16, 2021 Posted August 16, 2021 Not really K2 related, but finally have my own garage to start working on some more mods in the future! Soon to be wife and I closed on our first house this past Friday. While most of my time will be getting some inside updates done, looking forward to an epoxy floor, mud/tape/paint walls, and setting up my "dream garage" build. I'd say my family and extended family have good taste in trucks! 9

I only tow a 6x12 cargo trailer with my lifted truck. Max weight 3500 lbs. This pic was with 37's and only 9" lift. Now 38's and 10.5" lift Edited August 17, 2021 by dieselfan1 4
boettcher40 Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Big thanks to @pgamboa for the hookup on a painted tailgate handle! As always, packaged great, and he had it shipped within 15 minutes of contacting him. Delivered 2 days later. Now time for a much needed wash.. poor thing has been neglected the past 2 weeks. 2 1

slide187 Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Got three wheels done today, last one tomorrow morning. The caliper bracket bolts on these things are crazy torqued! 170lbs-ft in the front and 148lbs-ft in the back. Not alotta room in there for leverage. Anyways, went with some dimpled and slotted black zinc coated rotors (lifetime guarantee against warping and cracking) and ceramic pads from brakeperformance.com Edited August 19, 2021 by slide187 8
