Continental TerrainContact at 315/70/17. My new tire of choice, they perform and hold up great

Finally painted the sliders and bolted back up to the truck

Re-valved the icon rear shocks. Been wanting some more compression and rebound resistance to account for the different coil springs and added weight. Called Icon Vehicle Dynamics and they spec’d out a new shim stack for me, really helpful guys overthere. Surprised at how dirty the oil was, it’s only been about a year since last time I pulled them apart.

Shock voodoo! How was it getting them apart

Would you please tell me about how you designed/built the floor console? I've been wondering about something like this for my truck. Thanks.

Apparently I didn't get the picture from the first page of posts to show properly.

Not bad actually, well I did have to build my own tool to get the floating piston out of the reservoir

Lots of cardboard cutouts and masking tape, then traced and cut out of sheet metal. I’ll see if I can dig up any measurements I might have

Here is what I found, these are rough measurements but should get you going

Built a swing out tire carrier for the rig.

That came out great bro, good job.

Thanks for posting but when I looked at the measurements closer, I'm confused. The design shows dimensions greater than the space between the bottom of the dash and the front of the jump seat. What am I reading wrong. Thanks for your time.

Most satisfying 10min upgrade

Oh that console. My bad I thought you were talking about the one under the backseat. I don’t have any measurements from that floor console. I used cardboard to get the two sides and back, then traced to plywood. Don’t think I ever pulled out a tape measure lol, well except when it came to squaring up the switches and cup holders.

How'd you attach it to the floor? The stock console sucks with the bench seat. I mean, you don't need that custom one no mo soooooo send it to meeeee

Those switches, I need them......honestly just send me your truck, you don't really need all that

Wasn’t attached to the floor. Had it wedged between the seat and console. I would have sent it to you for free but the trash man got it after I put in the full floor console. The switch panel I got was off amazon, prewired with breakers instead of fuses. I would send the truck over to you but the bank would get pretty upset since technically they still own it lol.

The bank don't need to know!!! I mean technically they're basically the same truck aside from the fuel they drink....right. I need to figure out a switch panel for this thing. That's the 1 thing I don't do well, wiring, that ***** for the birds
