Added new LED headlights you guys definitely need to use Danny from @Underground Lighting for your lighting needs. Instead of wasting your money trying to figure out what works. Underground lighting is a preferred vendor here

Decided to remove the vinyl between my windows today. When I first looked at buying my truck I thought the vinyl was aftermarket by how Wrinkled it was but it also had vent visors that I am normally a fan of but after giving it some thought if I had the truck since new I probably would not have put the visors on. (They had to come off in order to take the vinyl off as well)

I used a heat gun and worked the vinyl off slowly. Literally all 4 pillars came off differently so I don’t even have tips or tricks on how much heat and angles to work etc. just time consuming. Plus I had the double sided tape that held the vent visors which is always fun to remove.

Washed, iron and fallout remover, clay bar using dawn dish soap and water as lubricant and then used paint prep.
Polished with meguiars M205 and then paint prep again prior to coating. DPC Shield is the nicest ceramic coating I’ve used. Very nice to work with.

Great looking rig!

Did you get any rub on the original setup with the level and 35’s?

I did not have any rubbing at all. But I do not know any information about the leveling kit that was previously installed

Stopped at a breakfast joint in Cape May, NJ then visited the Cape May light house. Never knew you could go up to the top of it. Drove home later and took the dogs out to a local walking trail (1st time) they did great so me and the wife stopped and got them ice cream

I can’t say that I do. However I have more confidence in the event I ever had to hit the brakes hard.

Dirt road to the lake house in Vermont.
I’m going to have so much cleaning to do it’s quite intimidating
