Thanks man! It's a work in progress... The one thing I did forget to mention was I removed the mud flaps as well.... I figured it would be apparent in the pictures. However the 265/75r16 is the stock size on the pro4-x. I'm on stock steelies and am running the skinny 33's so that may have...
Thank you! I have done some light wheeling with it since, mostly rutted Forrest roads and beach, and still no rubbing, although I don't think it'd take a whole lot to get it to rub on the top at this point. I'm fighting a couple different battles with it at the moment, the biggest of which is...
265 75r16 was the stock size on the pro4-x. 33's are perfect in my opinion, I just hope the lift will give me a little more room for up travel. I haven't topped out yet, but there's not much room with the 33's and my collapsing springs...
Looking at a nisstec 3" gone Moab kit with some heavy ome rear leafs and probably 650 or 700 fronts. The idea is to set the coilovers at 1.5ish so they aren't too precompressed and going heavy cause eventually the plan is to get a habitat and do a full build out in the back....
I love the tall "skinny" tires. I say "skinny" cause in reality 10 inches wide is still some not insignificant surface area. So far I have e been pretty impressed with the MasterCrafts I've got about 1000 miles on them now and they are still quiet, no chipping, no noticeable wear, and ha e...
Well I have been pretty busy, but I'm not sure I can remember what all I have gotten done since the last update. I removed the plastic tailgate protector and replaced it with a piece of flat stainless sheet. I also installed a gas lowering strut on the tailgate. Pretty sweet setup now. I took a...
Well we had a little mini vacation over the weekend, nothing huge and got rained out for the most part, but I did get to try out the tires on several different terrains. Got my Ultra Gauge calibrated and it looks like I only lost about 1-2mpg with the taller, heavier, more aggressive tires. Im...
Well I got the new shoes on. Prior to install I did the melt mod to make sure they would fit, and to be honest with the skinnys I am not entirely sure I needed too. At any rate they look awesome and so far seem to be quieter than the nittos I had on there to begin with, but we shall see as they...
Well I was hoping to make till tax time with the tires that were on the rig, but one of them started to delaminate so I got five matching stock 16x7 steelies, and I'm matching them with five MasterCraft CXT in 255/85R16. I hope they fit. I'm in the process of prepping the rims for bedliner, and...
Those gas struts are awesome! I've been looking into doing something like that too. Two questions. Do you find that using you panel as a fairing helps with drag/mpg, and do the struts provide enough force to hold against the wind?
Definitely following this. My youngest is almost out of his toddler years but I think alot of this applies to the years beyond as well. I just recently started to reprioritize camping trips and I am starting small as I work on my build, but there are plans in the works to start extending out. I...
I don't disagree... I haven't figured out how to reattach all of the emblems once I get them off to paint them. And for right now they are looking pretty good. As an update I put in some onboard air! I never realized what a difference tire pressures can make but I took the kids out for a long...
I put mine high up on my front fenders, but now I am going to have to move them cause I figured out when I put a snorkel on it the driver's side one will either be in the way or will be impossible to see.... Probably just move them down a foot or two...

The stinger doesn't use 18650s. In fact they don't use lithium at all. And they are completely proprietary yes. There are some on Amazon not made by streamlight that do work, although I'm not sure if they are as reliable, but it's like 15$ for a three pack...

I second the streamlight stinger. Mine came with the hardware to mount it in my rig and while it charges the internal battery while it's in it's clip, it also can charge a second on the same charger so it does have the quick swap option as well. They are special batteries but you can even buy...
Well it's been a while, but last weekend I finally made it out to the woods. Accidentally found an epic route from my house to Ocala National Forest via mostly dirt and single lane roads, and did some camping at the springs. I am completely reinvigorated as far as getting this truck kitted out...
Just sold one of my guns to pay for a lift. Decided to go prg advanced with the spc ucas. It doesn't come with a rear spring pack but the AAL should help my flattened springs until I can afford the OME HD pack and maybe some shackles or a block to match up to the front. Exciting times!!!
