Re-keying one of the Norweld boxes. Now they'll all be keyed alike. The FST on the rack is getting some love as well. I'll get around to starting a thread in the 40 section one of these days.

Start of the new tire winch carrier. The winch is going to be 2.5" lower than OE, which will enable us to drop the COG considerably.

Hmm...
Messing with the idea of a different hitch than OE...

We decided to retain the OE hitch, albeit "de-burred".

New aluminum from Norweld bolted onto the chassis. Luckily the uprights were the perfect height so we didn't need to remove any material.

Everything reassembled, re-aligned, and good to go. Time to load up and head out on a shakedown run.
Right off the bat my initial impression is that the truck handles WAY better. It's uncanny how much dropping the bed 3" improved everything.
More from the field.

Oops, no more road, time to turn around. A bit of rubbing on the forward DS box when flexed out, time to move the boxes forwards a bit.

The idea of a bear attack is a reality in many spots. Lost of noise and bear spray first, last resort firearm.

Loving the Norweld bed! The under bed boxes and rear drawer are awesome. That said the work to get the bed this low was really extensive. It would have been way easier had we used a shallower drawer or optioned a bed without one. Good to know for the next one.

Hmmm...not so sure about this.

Cool camping spot in Idaho. Careful to find a spot where dead fall wouldn't smush us if we had some wind activity.
Nice setup. Have had a Hawk on my Tundra for the last 8 years and love it. You can cut down a lot of wind noise up front by adding a spoiler under the front overhang. The unused space can be used to store camp chairs and a folding table- one of the next mods I'm planning for mine. Are you on the Wander the West site?
