Bilstein 5100s and a 3/4" TGC spacer in the rear to match the 5100s set at 2.8" and new UCAs in the front.

Tires are Cooper Discoverer ATP 275/65R20s on the stock Sport 20" rims with no spacers, and I had previously swapped to TufTruck 1211 springs in the rear. I'm waiting until the alignment to do my final measurements.

Looks like a well thought out set up, that looks really nice and clean there Dan, tires fit perfect. Silver was my first choice but settled for White (2nd)

Hey Danielmid, off topic, but what are your running boards? I like how flush and streamline they are.

Hey @Pines19, @shadowhawk is correct, they are Tyger Star Armor that I got off Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HFMNYIU/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and are pretty well made and bolt to the frame and the pinchweld holes so they feel super secure. Nowhere near rock sliders, but good enough for me. Grippy when wet, and low enough the kids can climb up.

my factory bars are slippery when wet. That's the only thing I don't like about them, really.

These are coated in rough powdercoat, not quite bedliner, but not just powdercoat either. They make the spray bedliner in cans, maybe you could do some grip zones where you step most?

285/60/20 on stock ride height. Trying to decide on which level and if I should put on 35’s. I wanna keep stock wheels.

I have the tyger running boards too. I love them.

That being said, it always rains in Florida and i did have my foot slip and hit my shin once. Once was enough! This is exactly what i did. The spray on bed liner made it just grippy enough, and still matched color wise.

Did you do any prep work and did you coat the whole running board completely or just the step areas?

I taped off the boards to the left and right of the actual step area(rectangle), and just hit it with a scuff pad for a minute.

I used duplicolor bed armor. It is more expensive the the average bed liner in a can, but it’s worth it. Sprayed from a proper distance (about 2 inches closer than the can said) will give you very similar texture to what is on there.

I’ve used the cheaper stuff on other parts over the years but this stuff is def the best results.

I have a 2 tone 1965 beetle in blurple and bed armor. I love that stuff :)
