Bought these today! On sale and couldn't pass it up. Have always wanted some nice off road lights for the bumper. Be sure to check out my Install in the coming week or so.

To my previous statement about the jumpy hood I wasn't talking about the bracing coming apart. I was referring to my hood latch being loose. Can pull up on the hood and it moves a small amount.

Fixed the jumpy hood with some wraps of electrical tape on the latch. Got the rear LEER window installed on my topper, walked past my truck twice now not realizing. Now I went to open my tail gate and the plastic broke. Just something else to fix. Why were they not re-enforced with metal?

KC headlight install!
Hey guys, finally got around to installing my Long Range KC-Hi Lights SLIM kit.
Had been looking at my blank cover here and decided it needs a nice button for some flash.
Peeled the dash apart with 4 simple bolts for the lower half cover.
The SLIM lights worked perfect for mounting to stock bumper for sure!
The drilled out unused cover turned out great! Looks stockish for its placement.
All mounted up and looking great! Need some aiming but I will have to wait for night time. Already looking to fill that void in the grill another pair of lights.

I recall there are several nuts you can tighten on the steering shaft both inside and outside. I know for a fact there is one on the outside near the steering box tho.

Yep that's what I planned on doing. Thinking of ordering some 285/75r16 mt/r.. I could fit with a 1" bj spacer.

Hey guys, been a while but really getting in to overland style camping. Looking in to a dual battery set up. looked all over the internet and found some useful information. Thinking of this set up here http://www.dfna.info/dual-battery-kit.html Let me know if anybody has another suggestion as well. Will also be installing bars to my topper for a Yakima Warrior Rack for a hi-lift and shovel along with other items as needed.. Possible camping awning in the back of my mind.
Thanks

With 140k now it's for sure time for a timing belt kit with water pump and tensioner since I'll already be in there. Would hate to do all that work then have my tensioner if it looses hydraulic pressure while driving at any speed.

I did mine at 150k miles in. belt was fine, like literally no cracks no nothing. I know it was done around 120k since i have the paperwork from the previous owner. Everything was 100% in spec as well, which was nice. Only reason I even did it was the crank pulley separated. there is a metal puck like part that came out but the rest was fine. RTV the right stuff gray did the trick..300 for a pulley wasnt happening.
