    Race truck parts equals race truck feels...how often are you in the back seat? I'd chalk it up to, "oh well!"

    Nice! I've also got the front super bumps from wheelers that I'm gonna install with my lift next week. I do currently have what I'm thinking are the black sumos in the rear that came with my truck. I wonder if the blue ones will give me a softer ride.
    20250406_173706.jpg

    Also based on reviews and good advice:headbang:, I'm going to remove my rear trd sway bar and go with RAS instead.

    Blue Sumo's will give a softer ride and I'm thinking the RAS will go on with the sway bar installed

    In your opinion what size lift would the super bumps be recommended? I have a 3.5in suspension lift.

    RAS will work with the sway bar, but I'm thinking he wants more articulation :mudding:

    I'm thinking I would want less articulation since the RAS is going on for towing..... don't want my stuff swaying in the breeze...lol

    Apples and oranges... I wouldn't say that articulation relates to sway. But, you can run both and remove one pretty easily if you decide you want to try with only 1.

    Used it to take a tree down. Yes those are jumper cables connected to the winch cables. One day I’ll remember to buy cable and run permanent lines to the back.

    Decided to relocate my SGIII after a hot day in the California sun yesterday melting the adhesive side of my mount that I was using for the gauge..

    Before:
    20241111_164923.jpg

    Used some spare hardware and a tap to thread the adhesive side of the ball mount to make it able to use a screw/bolt to mount onto my center console in front of the shifter.

    Gauge itself has an adhesive magnet plate on the backside that holds it to the phone mount for easy removal in case I need to use the gauge on another vehicle.
    20250608_160114.jpg 20250608_160128.jpg

    Cheap lil $0 DIY mod. Overall happy with the cleaner look plus I don't have the cable coming out of the switch plate now. :thumbsup:

    New Wheels! My truck was looking rather homely with the steel wheels and try as I might, I had to give in! I think the new wheels look fantastic and really make the truck!

    Old vs new. I purchased the truck with steelies and tried to make them work, but new wheels just kept calling and calling.

    Threw a new seat cover in where I drag my ass over the bolster... color is right and the material is better than I expected for $150. If I cared more I'd consider rocking the stream to tighten it up more... but the day's sunshine is helping.

    Did you have to drill the holes for the install? I bought the kit from Vleds with the footwell lights and puddle lights together
