Meso Customs Red Push Start Button.
I recently changed the front and rear diff fluid. Super easy to do your self.
I recently installed the Prinsu Top rack. Now, I can stand on the camper shell!
Got an awning for the truck. The first addition to the rack. Went with the Ironman brand. Really well made. Can’t wait to put it to use!
Also, on an off road road trip I broke my center cap on one of my rims! Ouch! But got them replaced with Meso Customs.
New updates:
picked up some maxtrax in turquoise and made custom mounting brackets for the Prinsu only cost about $15 for the supplies to make the brackets out of aluminum angle iron. Also, I had to adjust the light whip to match the new maxtrax.

Did some maintenance recently at 70k:
- Oil Change (done myself for the first time after having the dealer do it every time) - on the filter cover someone had over tightened the drain cap so the whole thing came off and oil went everywhere. I now need to buy a new cap as I was unable to loosen the drain cover for future drains. I’ll also be getting a fumoto for future self service.
- Greased the propeller shaft. Super easy to do.
- Installed a bully net in the bed to act as a baby gate while tail gating
- Installed some KC Rock Lights more photos to come
Here’s the rock lights. I got five installed and a sixth one I need to install on the front. Still trying to figure out a mounting point.
Suspension update: I had the front coils adjusted to max height. The truck is sitting pretty close to level now. I did have to take it to get an alignment which helped reduce just about all rubbing.

Thanks man!
Good choice
I like how that looks
Thanks. I figured it would pick up more of the grey tones and blend in with the colors scheme better. Plus I got em for free! Can’t beat thatGood choice
Ended up relocating the remote resi as I was experiencing a bit of tire rub on them while on the trail at full lock and flex. This should be a lot better.
Got the rear shocks installed
