Added air lift airbags to rear
Got rid of a lot of the swaying action
And increased gap between bump stop and axle by 1.5”

Does adding the airbags limit the travel in the suspension?
I am trying to pre-work what I think will be a task once I get my RSI SmartCap, platform rack and awning installed. I already have a Decked system - so I know I am going to have around 500+ lbs on the rear at all times (over stock). Stronger springs 'sounds' like the other option for me and to maintain good handling on and off road.

Very interested in your experience with these and why you chose them over springs. Thanks for sharing.

I Installed the Bullet Point Rubi Grid and also installed a USB-C port so I didn’t have cables coming up from the console. Very happy with the result, and the quality of the Bullet Point hardware. Now I’m just waiting on a short cable for the phone.

Real question, not intended to be rude or anti gun. I have a truck gun too, but it’s a long gun and locked in the back of the truck, I work with wildlife and have many interactions. But why would you want a pistol mounted where you can visibly see it? I get USA gun rights and all. But it just seems so strange to me to have a pistol mounted to the dash

It’s routed from the USB in the console up behind the radio and in to the bottom of the tray. My usb is no longer in the console, I removed it and it’s tucked behind the glovebox, I just installed a USB port to block the hole so the one you see in the console is useless. It would be nice if there was an actual blanking plate available.

Installed LED Sealights..pretty much straight forward I just ran into a hitch and had to remove the electrical box on top of my winch so I could pull the grill. And the ACC wiring is just the right length to wrap around the fuse box by the fire wall and enter from the left side . Still have to drive it at night but no complaints so far . Plug and play !

Been to Memphis or Little Rock recently? Does no good if you can’t reach it.
I would think his leg covers it right there anyway so it’s not really visible.
I’m not pro/anti gun either. Gun ownership and marksmanship training should be mandatory for everyone. Lots of things that should be ain’t. We all can only make our little slice of paradise better. Do what you can where you can.

Gave mine a bath today. I didn't have the energy to buff out all the scratches. One of the trails we hit regularly has a really narrow, branch-filled pathway.

Looks good. What lift and tires are you running?

So it's not digging in my hip and side when I drive. It goes from hip to dash when I drive and dash to hip when I get out. I carry either a full size HK 45 or a full size FN509. They dig under my rib cage when I'm driving.

Some states in order to carry the gun has to be in sight. If you have a concealed carry permit it does not have to be in sight. If I ever have to use my gun I sure as he'll don't want to take the time to have to unlock it from somewhere.
