    I screwed around with my fender liner on the drivers side. Successfully moved it some, not sure if its enough to get rid of my slight rubbing when i back up. Had to leave out a bolt from the bumper corner because it had a metal insert in the plastic and i couldnt just cut a new slot.

    Anybody have any tips to get more clearance on the fender liner? I guess this is a good excuse to get some 5100s up front.

    I just cut a small hole in the plastic where it bulges out and hits the tire. You can also try using a heat gun and pushing the plastic in more. Or you can grind the metal underneath to make a little more room to push it forward even more.

    Ebay specials, they are put together well and the price was right. Will see how they hold up.

    Washed the truck... again. This is what came off the pinch weld before I started. It’s way worse under the truck. Still have the engine, bed, interior and undercarriage to do. The dirt just keeps coming out of nowhere.

    Normally I wouldn’t even bother. But my new suspension is going in soon and this dirt would make the install unbearable. I just went outside and chiseled off another half a bucket of chunks of dirt out of my wheel wells. :facepalm:

    Got it. I’ll snap some pics tomorrow. The lights ended up where they did because of the bracket located behind the bumper. I’m thinking of putting a pair in the plastic filler panel as well.

    This is why I quit playing in the mud with my nice trucks, it ain't worth it to me. That's why I built a dedicated wheeler.

    Don't encourage him. Anytime he washes is a good thing. His truck too.

    Keep up the good work Joon. Once it's clean stay outta the mud.

    Has anyone used headlight revolutions led headlight conversion bulb kits? What's your experience? I want to upgrade my headlight brightness. But I ain't spending the money it cost to put the 2018 led headlights in.

    I've watched their YouTube video, and it made me want to do it more, just want to make sure it's not a waste of time or money. YouTube videos are good, but sometimes the real world stuff is alot different.

    You're welcome, glad I can help. I'm pretty sure u will be happy with them. I would be even without the BD fogs, with them it's an amazing combo.
