Warning - soap box moment follows:
Pretty soon some crack pot dealership is going to be voiding warranties because we changed our oil too often and not exactly at the recommended intervals -- there by introducing unnecessary air into the engine that caused the ECU to get out of sync that caused...
Tazer is great if you want to do a bunch of other customization to the electronics. But, if you only want to eliminate the Start/Stop "feature" there are devices for doing only that out there that are about a third the cost of a Tazer. And an upgrade to a used 7" or 8.4" radio might be a...
I like how the uprights are, well, more upright. I’m not a big fan of the look when they angle in much from bottom to top. Nice addition with the unistrut too. I’m looking to cantilever over the roof as well. Thanks for the ideas.

Looks like you have an insert style bed liner and they have a spray on liner. That’s why it looks different. I thought I heard someone once mention there’s an extra piece of weather stripping to put at the front on beds without a liner insert to level it up with the side rails. Am I misremembering?
I too decided to go with the Aries ActionTrac power steps. Just ordered them yesterday. I don't do any rock crawling and only mild off-roading so I wasn't in need of true "rock slider" capability. This meant I could save a few bucks for other toys. I like how they have 3 support bars (vs. RSE's...
