I was also playing with my buffer and made a mirror out of my dissent skid

A few updates to the build.

1) Replaced Bajarack with Prinsu and got a height loss of a tad over two inches, which is great because I squeeze fit in 7' garages before now I feel a little less panic when driving into work.

2) Got new wheels and tires... didn't fit around hub (even tho they were tundra fit tires), so I had to get another set of wheels and tires. Went with the F5s gunmetal and the nitto ridge grapplers love the combo.

3) I had to reinstall all the things around the roof rack, so I replaced the lights with a better brand (rigid) small profile and about the same light output. The solar panel also fit in very snug on the new rack.

4) Batt upgrade to the big boy

5) Rebuilt the Icons

6) Installed front LCA reinforcements

Here is how it sits now

Are those 16 or 17 inch wheels?

Edit: Answer, 16s. The other posts showed up after I clicked through. That setup is sweet. I think my favorite part is the mirror finish on the skids. That is pretty freaking awesome.

Your truck is pretty drool worthy these days. My favorite part is that you are actually taking it to some good trails. It should be a great wheeling season this year! As said above, the mirror skid is freaking cool.

You may have one of the more severe cases of "boltonitis" I've seen. lol. Keep it up though. It makes for a great product showcase.

The polish should help the rocks just slip off, rather than grind and groove!

Love it. Couple questions on the Icon rebuild -
- Was it difficult/did you have instructions?
- Where did you buy the rebuild kit?
- Can you revalve to make Stage 1s stiffer?

Adding a fuel tank to your crumple zone just does not seem like a good idea....

I guess it depends on how you use it. I actually don't have that on the truck anymore, but to be honest that was never something I was worried about. It was always empty during city driving and I would never use it unless I was off on trails that would be long enough to potentially be short on fuel. Aren't all Jerry can holders in the back?
