Yup tried ARB USA, they didn’t have any. Ended up tracking some down at Wheelers in Oregon
I’m not sure if it’s Dobinsons or not. This one came from soflobumpers. The template was good except for 1 bolt hole location. Luckily I caught it before I drilled anything. Seems like this one was thought out well, I haven’t seen others though. It lines up with left side of fender curve and top of fender at hood.

Started the initial purchasing string of goodies while on deployment. Picked up a high country FSR 55" tri-layer RTT and a Prinsu Rack with 40" lightbar cutout. First of many things to hopefully be waiting for me in my garage when i get home.
Big shoutout to @Truck Brigade for their awesome customer service!

Haven't done anything but did receive a couple of packages from Baja Designs, Pop and Lock, Mountain Hatch and yet another Meso Customs is on the way. Tomorrow is installing the Alpine mic since the stock one doesn't work with the new head unit and fiddling around with the TSS (the garnish appears to me canted back so it's pointing up a bit??? More on what I discover there tomorrow).

Yesterday I attended the local Rigs and Coffee event. Cool meet for sure and I had a blast. Then went over to @Malcom place and installed a bunch of electrical just need to wire up a few more things and it'll be done. So far the Switch Pro, bus bar, fuse panel are wired. The Switch Pro controller is mounted in the cab. Wiring is run to the new outlet in the bed and it's powering the fridge. Still need to wire up two other light setups, but it's coming along nicely. Thanks again @Malcom!!
Installed some @Remmen Brakes front pads for the truck. Great quality ?

Eager to hear your thoughts on them
I post once I get the break in done and really get to try it out. I have a manual though, so my feedback might not be what the majority of people are looking for..
I'm dying because I ordered mine about a month ago and they are backordered, possibly until September. The wait is killing me. I'm so freaking ready to regear.

In the last few weeks I've done a ton to prepare for our trip.
Today we postponed the trip because I replied I needed to address the cab mount rub. While it's still not perfect, it'll do for a road trip. I'll be fixing it fully when we return.
Today the grinder came out. The CMC I had already was not nearly enough and I went to town. I don't even want to post pictures because someone will be adamant it's dangerous and maybe it is, but I think it's fine for a short while while I await my cab mount relocation kit.
I cut a perfectly good bumper and trimmed my perfectly good fenders. I think it came out pretty well actually.
I'll post pics soon in my build thread. I'm going to finish my beer and pass out.

Day 3 of a 2 week trip with our crew. Visited the bridge from Stand By Me today.
Nice, I was just at Lassen a few days ago! If you keep heading north to Kalamath Falls keep an eye out to the east side of the road after you cross into Oregon. I saw a MFP replica car from Mad Max out in a farmer's field.
Finished up my chrome delete project. Finally found some time to plasti-dip the door badges. Also, I serviced my UCAs by greasing the bushings and reapplied some PTFE lube on the uni-balls. Gotta keep the balls lubed up you know! No more squeaky front end. Yay.

My wonderful and supportive wife picked up my new GoFSR High Country Tri-Layer 55" for me from FedEx Freight while i'm deployed. I'm a lucky guy...

That's legit keeper of a woman right there ?
That looks so killer ?
I’ve been a busy guy lately, sorry for not keeping up so much with the forum. Little update on the truck though, got my @fifteen52 turbomac HD classics put on and installed my Icon bumpstops I won in the Uber land giveaway at Expo West. These things were a bitch to install for sure!
Also got setup with a new tent and awning from ROAM adventure co. And I gotta say it’s an amazing tent!

Nice man, those wheels are growing on me. The tent looks really good with colors you got going on! I was going through iphone photos recently and forgot that I snagged a photo of your scratched up pro wheels from the OC overland event. Gonna post it on IG next wheel Wednesday!
haha theyre for sale if anyone wants them!@
Nice, I'll give you a shout out maybe get you a buyer. I just started a new IG account for the truck. Maybe I'll have a good amount of followers by then.
