The paint on the truck is not factory. Dustin or the previous owner had it painted. It's a paint quality issue, not a sticker issue. I'm still not happy, but it's not the end of the world. I'll just have them painted.

Walt, sucks about the paint. I saw this pic on IG. I remember you telling me about the deluge over the windshield, you were right!

For those who weren't there, there was a swimming pool size puddle at the base of the jump. Nothing like driving blind!

It looks like the truck was black from the factory. It has a 50/50 paint job now. Looks good from 50 feet or at 50 miles per hour.

Cage should be under way in a few weeks. 3.0’s are also being considered. Stay tuned.

Thoughts on front end options. Keep the existing 2.5 coil overs and add a 2.5” bypass or go 3.0 IBP.

Might consider 3.5’s also. If one shock per corner will work is the IBP worth it? I already have 2” x 2” bumps up front. If you have gone through the build you kinda get how I’ve been using the truck. If I’m buying new shocks I’ll spend some extra coin to go bigger if it’s worth it.

If you can fit a c/o bypass combo and can afford it, do that. IBP's are hard to tune, have smaller pistons and less oil capacity than a 2 shock combo.
