    So far none. Played around in the driveway with different angles, and I couldn't get them to rub the front liner. It's close, but it doesn't look like they would rub even if the tire was fully stuffed. I'll see today after my alignment if anything changes.

    Reverse at full lock is where rubbing will happen if you have any at all

    Well, tried it at full lock yesterday in my dad's driveway, but apparently his driveway was too flat. Went to back out of my driveway this morning and they were rubbing at full lock. Popped the liners out and I'll deal with it later.

    Got my OEM tow mirrors installed this evening. 30 minute job max. Gained the side marker lights and blinker. IMG_5491.jpgIMG_5494.jpg

    Also, the areas I will be hunting this year, I am required to carry a shovel, axe and 5lb fire extinguisher during fire season. So, I picked up this shovel ($9.99) and axe ($18.99) from Harbor Freight today. Just waiting on my locking mount to show up, and then I may have to fabricate an additional bracket.

    Need some help in regards to alignment. Truck is pulling a bit to the right, and by my visual inspection, looks like my passenger front has positive camber while the drivers side appears to be near 0. I called the shop that did my alignment, and they can't provide me a spec sheet. I didn't realize it wasn't included in the paperwork they gave me. He assures me it was within spec, but says they don't save them if they don't print it when the truck is on the machine. He said they could take a look at it, but it would be the middle of next week before he would have time. This is from an alignment shop that specializes in lifted trucks. Wondering if I need to try and get a second opinion before I hit the road for the weekend and rack up even more miles.

    Took it to Les Schwab this morning, and the alignment numbers from the first shop look pretty damn good, so Schwab didn't touch the alignment. They drove it, and confirmed that it is pulling to the right, so they said it could be an issue with one (or more) of the tires. Hitting the road shortly, so will be going to Discount Tire first thing Monday morning for them to take a look at the tires.

    Haven’t updated this in a while cause I haven’t really done anything to the truck. I did order a Leer 100XR canopy yesterday and my antenna fell victim to the car wash last week, so a new stubby antenna is en route. :)

    Leer installed today with keyless entry. Now I need to figure out some bed storage since there’s none in the cab even for simple items like jumper cables.

    Coachbuilder bumper shims installed. Used two per side to push it forward 1/2”. Here’s a side shot to see the body lines. C941E715-C43E-40E6-A3C1-E652096D06A1.jpg

    Thought I posted this the other day...

    Superstrut bed rails sprayed with bed liner and installed. Due to my canopy clamps, I just went with shorter sections on the sides and will use them for lighter weight stuff.

    Yes I have. Unfortunately, I didn’t know about them when I joined here, or I would have picked a different user name. :facepalm:

    Thanks! Lots more I’d like to do it, just too many competing priorities. The canopy is awesome, since I always have two car seats, and sometimes three, in the back seat when we head out camping and such.

    Why are you not liking the ST Pros?! Too aggressive and causing the "rubbing" or is it another issue?!

    They have just gotten progressively louder as time goes on, and have never balanced real well. Performance wise I have zero complaints. Going to go back to Trail Grapplers that I’ve had really good luck with on previous trucks.

    Haha, thanks. I know it’s not much compared to a lot of the trucks on here, but as much info/ideas as I took from this site when I bought my truck, I figured I’d contribute to give others an idea.
