Just the dip. It wasn't meant to be long term.

I will probably wrap the a/b pillars down the road.

A member inquired about my taillight install....

I used wire instead of the plastic clips that were provided with the tubes. The clips felt cheap and I didn't want them breaking or moving around after the tails were all sealed up...

How do you like the Rough Country Lift? Is it holding up well?

As far as lifting my truck...it's doing great! Lol

I haven't had any issues but I also don't take it offroad much. I need new tires.

You considering an RCX lift?

I am, but not sure yet. I pull a travel trailer quite a bit, and was looking at the Tuftruck springs, so If I can do those and the lift, then I am totally in. I really like the way the RCX lift is done. And you are a no BS kind of guy so I figured I would ask.

There's a couple of different air bag setups that I've come across that seem to work well with the 6" lift setup. I'll be getting a toyhauler down the road so I'll be installing one of these setups in the near future. Also leaning towards on-board air system.

Forgot all about my 3rd brake light mod. I have noticed it helps keeping tailgaters back.

Nice!
Did you make this mod only to the 3rd brake light or also to your 2 tailgate lights?

Only the third light. I'm not sure if the taillights would be legal to do this.

I have had multiple cops behind me while out driving since the install and have had no issues.

Thanks. Better only the 3rd brake only indeed.

I have a non-DOT brake light (modulates and MUCH, MUCH brighter than stock) on my scoot. No issues whatsoever with Johnny Law. I figure if they want to write me a ticket for my increasing my safety, c'est la vie.

No. I'd post here, but don't want to hijack your thread. ;)
