    Was putting more LED's in.

    3175's arrived for the map lights and the domes. Turns out the map lights are NOT 3175 ... both the manual and the sticky on this forum show 3175. It's a 6418 LED, in actuality.

    So I installed 3175 in the dome. Waiting on the right lights for the map. In my frustration, I somehow managed to lock my keys inside. :censored:

    Waiting for AAA right now. :help: Rofl.

    What's annoying is when I bought the truck, it came with two keys ... but haven't put them on a second ring yet. It's been 25 years since I locked keys in a vehicle LOL. My kids are giving me a REALLY hard time. :facepalm:

    If Im not mistaken, 305/75/17 are 35s right? Those look like 32 or 33s but I could be wrong. Also did you raise the back and just add 2” up front?

    My 35s required mucho pinch weld/firewall modifications to fit. I think the access cab has slightly less room.

    Might work for you, but I put a thin key in my wallet. Makes morning startups even easier because I just lock the main keys and fob inside the truck using the thinner key on the outside of the door.

    I got my rear bumper from Rock Auto. Quality was good as was the price. I painted it with Duplicolor Truck Bed Coating (not bed liner). It gives a slight textured finish -- much less so than bed liner. I think it looks really good.

    I bought the wrong bulb as well. Took me 3 times to get everything right on the interior bulbs. The third time, I finished everything in the Autozoned parking lot just in case I needed to return or buy the proper bulb. That 6418 is a better bulb with more light.

    Try taking your map light metal shields off the back of the plastic lens. More light! They snap back on if you don’t like.

    Grab a hide a key!

    Oh yea I wrote the wrong number, they 305/65/17. This must be a a perfect fit because anything bigger would rub for sure. The are worn down to about 25% b/c I got the set for $50. Figured I try fit and it worked. If they hd full tread maybe rub, idk. Anyone else try this size? Be nice to know if I can put on full tread. Also I just leveled the truck, rears are new 5100’s that came with the adjustable front set.

    There was some camera angle trickery going on there. Still not sure how he took the pic that way, but it wasn't that steep, and I drove right out. I was just turning around so we could head back down.

    Nice. I've only seen a few 1st gens running them. Are they comfortable on road as well?

    It's very smooth on the road. I didn't spring for the adjusters, but wish I had. After I installed my suspension we brought the ADS line on at our shop, and everyone who has bought them loves them. I think they are better than King IMO.
