    It took about 30 days as accurately advertised on their site, definitely worth it though, these things are SOLID.

    Thoughts on Hammer Hangers shackle hangers?

    Baja designs S8 and Prinsu rack.

    the prinsu 40" cutout wasn't enough? Or you had to trim the prinsu light bar brackets? Also did you run the lightbar wiring down the pillar?

    I'm sporting the ICON RXT Leafs, this leaf pack has three stages to adjust as you add or remove weight to your truck. I got the 5A mid-travel package from Accutune. Slight rake in the back, only because i have no weight back there yet and I have the leafs set to stage 2 (middle setting).
