Nice! I'm thinking of getting the two outer ones to mount my boards too which are currently loose in their bag. Looks like they'd integrate OK with my current Built Right Industries system. What do you think? Thanks!

Yea actually I think that could work. Only other thing I would be careful about is the method you plan to mount your boards. I bought a universal kit that has long posts you screw these nuts on to through the boards. I'm not sure what kind of boards you have, or how you plan to mount them, but you'd just need to make sure the mounting points reach across far enough to skip the center panel. Measure twice, buy once.

this looks like the most off-road ready rig that's never been off-road yet. it's okay man - dip your toe into the mud and have some fun!

Car washes help! Ha, Most of this gear was in my 2017 power wagon and 2007 Power Wagon and 2000 1500. They helped me off road, backpack and climb 80 of Colorados highest peaks. I've been in the mud and had lots of fun and plan to continue to, don't you worry

Thank you, definately will do some double checking. My Dad always said that and a good rule.

I live by the "measure once, cut yourself" rule

Picked up my truck from National Speed Today after they installed their Stage 1 package and here are the results 726 to the Wheel. Huge difference in my 0-60 too. My best time before was 3.9. Pulled a 3.4 today. The seat of my pants dyno says awesome!

Installed the ADD rear shock guards (no instructions but it's pretty straight forward once you get the truck in the air and the wheels off. I have to use a floor jack to move the axle around so the bolts would go through the shock mount. I also worked on the S&B intake. Installed larger washers, put some washers as spacers on the crossbar mounts that are on the fenders as I noticed some rubbing on the the supercharger. I also installed the paper filter and sock in preparation for a trip to Big Bend National Park.

Also, these bolts on the bottom were all loose and two were almost all the way backed out. I tightened them back up and put some Locktite on them.

Oh and the worm gear clamp on the throttle body was loose. Did anyone ever find the correct t-band clamp size or part number for the thottle body?

View attachment 124512 View attachment 124513Finally had nice enough weather to wash and detail the truck and then install my ADD rack.
Also a huge shout out to @Nick797 for the great deal on the rack. I picked up from the dent / ding pile they had. Added a couple coats of spray paint to hide the scratch on top and boom it’s good as new.

Not a huge fan of those racks on any truck, but that looks great and way better than a Rambar...Also thought I was damn sure I did not like yellow either...well damnit dude! Truck looks killer...nice job!

Yeah I wasn’t sure about the rack look but @Nick797 had the rack on clearance in dent/ding pile so I took a chance on it. It came out far better than I expected it too!
