Today I did the ACH override lift and added some yellow LED foglights. Love the way it looks! I’ve got to prime and paint the rear mud flap delete and install them. I was almost ready to remove the running boards but with the lift I kinda need them.

My truck is exactly the same color. I recently picked up a set of those same wheels that need a little TLC and was thinking about painting them that color too. Now you've sold me on the idea! Thanks
 
After having the rear hatch shut on me and hitting me square in the forehead. I finally replaced the old and tired hatch shocks. Oh what a difference it made. The hatch now opens effortlessly. Should’ve done this a long time ago

I had been dreading this job but it had to be done. A few weeks ago I went to install a new rear lid weatherstrip and found some small rust spots starting.

All good now. Since its all hidden I didn't bust out the $30+ can of Blue Vapor Metallic and just used some silver I had on the shelf.

Installed the new weatherstrip and finished it off with some of the good stuff.

My New Year's resolution was to get that @*%^@*% driver side ARB nerf bar/step on. So, that's done. Went with the original plan -- cut off the middle support bracket, trimmed the rear bracket, then made a mounting plate for the rear since there's no room for a U-bolt. Eventually I'll mount that middle bracket and join it to the support it got cut off of. That's a problem for future me. Still need to install the step plates, possibly front mud flaps and puddle/courtesy lights. Now to order the fender rails! Also replaced the rear door window trim/molding.

Got a few things done last week.
- Finished installing the 6.5” skar subwoofer in the OEM enclosure. Not that impressed but it’s better than no sub. May be removing it and try squeezing a 10” JL in my drawer system.
- Cleaned the AC blower fan under the passenger console. Thing was filthy!
- Installed an Ironman diff drop. Time to crank the TB a little more.
- Got a much needed detail and waxing.

how difficult was the install ? i just got quoted almost $1800 to fit the front & rear seat covers , i only paid $1800 for the whole lot (in aud $)
Not bad at all. Get a decent pair of hog ring pliers and it is easier. There are several threads on here that describe the how to's. Just take your time. Drivers seat was about three hours. faster the second time.
 
AHC lift. Installed new tie rods on each side. Added a Prinsu rack. Ironman 6.5’ awning. 285/70/18 Geolander MT’s. 1” Bora spacers. Skar audio upgrades; iPad to control it. Lasfit 42.5” amber light bar. And, built a drawer/ organizer in the cargo. Ignore the staples in the top left corner. It was the last panel to get carpet and I was over it. It will be redone at first convenience.

Truck looks great. PO removed and chucked the running boards on mine, I just use my sliders as step boards now. I'm focused on ground clearance and approach angles. The rear mudflap deletes do help on that with less to hang up behind rear tire. There's really nothing on mine (besides the sliders and they tuck up) below rocker panel/ bottom of bumper- but i'm also considering some kind of higher/tighter rear bumper (no junk hanging from it) and pulling the spare tire from underneath and storing in back.

It's always something. :)

I've been working on these replacement seat back nets for a bit now, they're available for 80 and 100 series. The ones in my 100 were so bad the PO cut them out, sparked an idea and now I'm ready to share them with you guys. My first batch has been sold and shipped to some awesome cruiserheads throughout the country. I upgraded to a supporting vendor, made a post in the Vendor- General section.

This is Great!!!. Does it come in a color that matches the stone (Grey) interior?
 
Finished this up a while ago. Wasn’t to happy with the overall cost of a complete replacement, so I went to work. Used premade plate, mounting kit and hinge assembly from 4xinnovations. 4’ of 2x3 and 2x2 3/16 and some scrap 2x4 3/16 at the Frame. Not bad for being really my first time welding and with a little HF $160 easy flux machine. Hasn’t fallen off yet so I’d call that a win.

I’ve been looking for a good match for the gray interiors. I like some contrast rather than diving straight into a dead match, this one even looks like stone😀. I’ve got one set of these for a 100 series on hand.
