Full bedrug to pair with my ARE topper, just need to pick up some adhesion promoter to stick down the areas around the bed lights and tail gate. Transformation to Dadiator complete.

Thanks @RealTruck for the great price quote and quick delivery.

Installed and removed Go Rhino RB20 sidesteps today. Ordered from Quadratech and apparently received with the wrong brackets. They have a huge gap where the seams are. It’s going to be a pain to repackage and ship back. Atleast quadrateck provided an rma the same day.

Well, went to install my new set today I picked up on sale Black Friday direct from Go Rhino, same dang problem.

Looks like yours, total crap, terrible fit. Had a set on my Tundra and loved them, fit perfect. They are definitely having bracket issues right now, warning to anyone interested in these.

Got the Z60 recall done yesterday. Took about 2 hours since the software kept crashing while trying to update 🙄
Finally got it done and all is well.
Anything special with the z60 recall? Just a pcm reflash again. Wasn’t the recall prior to that the same thing? Maybe finally figuring out what’s plagueing peoples misfires. I got my z60 done last week.

I think they were similar. I haven’t had any issues but figure it’s good to get the updates.

Just a bit of "fair warning" here...

Those are undoubtedly some good looking running boards; but if I'm not mistaken, your picture makes it look as though they are just bolting through the pinch seam. And one other bolt mounting somewhere else isn't enough. If you weren't aware...anything substantial that you hit or hits you is going to bend that pinch seam and potentially your tub "tout suite".

Since you say you are returning them anyways, I'd really recommend you find some running boards that mount to the frame. Even the ones that use the body mounts (like the ACE sliders) run the risk of being pushed upwards enough that they will bend the tub.

Ask me how I know...:crying:
The Ace ones will not bend. I have beat the hell out of mine and they have not budged.

Just installed my bedrug as well. Looks like you made the tailgate rug meet the edge of the tail gate? May need to redo mine. I did it up to the plastic

Installed the Genesis dual battery kit rather than replace the accessory battery again. Doesn’t quite fit with the S&B CAI, so will have to do some modification in the future, or just say screw it, an put the stock air box back in.

My tub would beg to differ. I have video of landing on a rock, the whole slider flexing upwards because the body bushings flexed, and the gap between the tub and the bottom of the door being almost non-existent now. Even the slider has a slight upward arc to it now as well.

It can and has happened; but “you do you Scotty P”.
