    Bike rack

    Looking for a platform hitch mount bike rack that can allow the tailgate to fully open. Does anyone have experience with one or can direct me to one. I have researched some and cant seem to find what I need.

    Bed rack build

    Surfboard will fit with the tent on. I just didn't have them both on at the same time. It's just a soft surf rack mounted underneath. The straps go below the board.

    Bed rack build

    This is as far as I got. I work to much. Main goal for now was to get the RTT up for a camping trip.

    Bed rack build

    Thanks, I originally wanted to go with a shell like yours. The leer dealer kind of talked me out of it based on the weight of a tent. I couldn't get a straight answer on weight limits. Where did you buy your shell?

    Bed rack build

    Wanted to share a project I have been working on. With the help of my close friend and fabricator we made a bed rack for a RTT. So far got the base done. We made the rack to bolt into the stock rail system. The center posts are removable for easy storage if not used. Here is what I'm planning...

    30 inch LED light bar

    The instructions want you to cut out more of the grill than neccessary. I cut mine 1/2 less on each side. I didn't want a gap between the end bolt and plastic grill.

    Performance Air intake and exhaust recommendations

    I installed a K & N filter into the factory box, and welded in an 18 inch Magnaflow muffler. I noticed a small difference with performance. It's a little louder than I wanted so I am going to add a resonator to absorb a portion of the noise.

    30 inch LED light bar

    Installed a 30 inch LED light bar from Rough Country. I really like the look of seeing of the light rather than behind the grill. What do you guys think?

    Auto tailgate lock

    I recently installed a pop and lock to auto lock my tailgate with the auto lock system. It is pretty loud when it locks and unlocks. I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with any type of insulation to help quiet the noise.
