Topper fix A+, 6 dogs A+++ I love pets lol

Explit Player- if one has rust where fender flares would cover what would the best way to handle this so the rust doesn't keep spreading? Cut the rust section out and just do a little patch and then fender flares?

Fender Flares instead of rust repairs!

It definitely needs both.

They also sell products that essentially seal the rust so it stops spreading. It's like $8/can at Ace.

I'm thinking about ordering a light bar for the front. I was planning a 50" (straight) up top and a 42" (curved) in the bumper.

But I'm thinking about keeping the tow hooks and buying one that fits (without measuring I'd say somewhere in the 21" range), and the 50" up top.

I got mine from BlackKnight Lighting, no problems out of it at all, good customer service during order as well, and a lifetime warranty! (500$ 50"Curved)(Sorry to butt in)

Well if you get a light bar, I'll probably end up getting one as well. I just got my interior LEDs and ordered my HIDs. Now I just have to get my foglights working and I'll install LEDs there as well.

Nice mudding pics! Always like seeing a truck all muddy.

I'll add on to thinking about doing LED cubes for fogs as well. I have HIDs in them now, been in for awhile now so maybe when they go I'll do the LEDs.
