    I did the same but used JBL GTO series coax 3.5 Significant upgrade over stock. Just be sure to use a 300hz-350hz bass blocker, not the OEM capacitor that was originally used on the tweeter.

    I've been running these Konig Countersteer Type X wheels without the center caps ever since I had them installed. Today I decided to pop in the caps. So far I'm liking how they look.

    Damn, had to look twice to see them.

    Any issues with the auto-up on the front windows?

    When I first put them in the windows fought me a little bit. After leaving the glass all the way up a couple days they’ve been fine.

    I in a way feel your pain. My mother battled breast cancer and thankfully won. Intense radiation, burned skin, lost all her hair, fingernails fell off, it was terrible. I will keep your wife in my thought and I wish her and your family the best of luck. Keep fighting, stay positive. A positive mindset is extremely important not only for her but for the whole family.

    Not today, but yesterday I installed my Icon lift. It's a Stage-X, I guess... because I didn't really follow their Stage system. I ordered 2" rear springs, and CDCV remote reservoir shocks, front and rear. Basically chose which parts I wanted to start with and I'll add the other parts later to bring it up to a Stage 7 setup.

    Alignment and new tires will be happening in a few hours today.

    Looks good! Did you have to do any spacers or lift in order to prevent rubbing? Looking to possibly change out my tire/wheel to the TRD and BFGs.

    Thanks! Yeah, Barcelona Red changes color pretty dramatically in different lighting conditions. That's one of the things we liked about the color. :)


    Thanks!

    Your wife and you are in our prayers. My ex-wife developed breast cancer, caught it early, had a mastectomy and completely changed. She is the ex. Then one of my best friends developed it and needed a dual mastectomy. She actually needed chemo also and it was very bad. I'm so sorry it has metastasized. Try and research all treatments. After that, research medical marijuana, it is very beneficial for cancer patients.

    No spacers or lift. I went with the 265/70/17 so they are the same size as stock on the other trim levels.

    Did you remove the entire housing from the truck to install the film? Wet or dry method?

    Report back after running them in the dark. Curious to know how much light output is affected. Thanks!

    I changed some lights, tires and tinted windows...mind blowing huh
    I did mine without removing the housing and just the dry method. It does cut down the light a bit with the HIDs I don’t care.

    Nope, the film will tuck behind the shroud no problem
    Wet method here- a must of water and just follow the super simple instructions that come with the film
    Will do- I imagine it’ll cut it back a little bit the trade off is well worth it in my opinion

    Yup- it’s minor but there is a slight bit. Can barely hear it if there’s a dead silence in the truck, but it does sound like there’s a little
    I also noticed today that my passenger window wanted to act dump and sense there was something blocking the glass and not roll up lol
    It went up and stay up after a tap of the button but was annoying nonetheless

    That said, I’d still buy them all over again. They by far look the best afaic and thankfully are removable with no glue residual
