While i am still waiting on my sliders and gobi brackets, i decided to take care of the fading trim pieces that are next to the windshield. I used plasti dip, i think they came out rather nice.

I did the same thing, now it looks like i have to do the rest of the trim too so its all the same. Looks Good CG!

So this weekend i took a trip down to the local 4 wheel parts store to pick up one of these bad boys.

In a side note. Rocky road sliders came in today. Something must have gone wrong during the shipping process because i am missing 10 or so nuts washers, lock nuts, and 8 bolts. Oh and to add to the pain, the nuts that came are the wrong ones for the bolts!! Ahh!!
Looks like a home-depot trip is in my future.

Maybe a rather dumb question here but are you able to just outright buy the limb raisers or did you make them yourself with some cable and what not?

I made them. I used some metal wire and a kit to make loops in the wire, a turnbuckle, some rubberized clamps, small shackles, and im still working on an attachment for the BG, they are currently ziptied to it.

Im sure you can buy a kit somewhere but its really easy to make.

Well after a day of pain and frustration, i have finally managed to get my rocky road sliders on.

I had to tap each one of the threads to clean them out so the bolts would go in. The tap worked perfectly. I also used anti seize on each bolt to ensure they would come out later.

I did the install by myself, very easy to do. The brake lines are a pain in the ass!!

Not for a while. The tires were bought in january, i had no say in the matter, so i will have to wait till these run down to get some 35's.

Bummer, the truck still looks great! So whats your next mod?:corn:

 

[cgalpha08]

Next mod is already here, the ARB awning is sitting in its box awaiting the mounting brackets from Gobi. So after that goes up, ill be saving up for a winch and winch mount. Im sure in the mean time ill be fabbing up a rear storage system.

Those tires will last too long but once you get the tires you want they never last long enough
