Made some recent updates and thought I'd mention them.
I replaced all the interior bulbs with LEDs. It was inexpensive so it's fine but I still think they should have higher outputs on the door bottoms and the rear hatch door.

I got tired of some of the rattling caused by the subwoofer so I spent a couple hours putting vibration dampening on a good bit of the truck area. There's still one section that I can't get to without pulling the plastic on the passenger side off but I really don't want to deal with it as I'd also have to pull my storage compartment out. I'll get to it someday.

Finally, this weekend I replaced the OEM UCAs with JBA Offroads. I'm going to drive it around until Friday so everything settles a bit then get the alignment done. I'll report back on Caster afterwards. I'm really hoping for 4+.
I won't go into the install because there have been several posts on this forum and in Youtube that will walk you through it better than I can. I will just say to check out this thread and read it all the way through. I had a bear of a time getting the inner washers on until I saw a post in that thread about using a pry bar to give yourself just enough space to cram the second small washer in. The driver's side took me 3 hours on Saturday night and at one point I honestly didn't think I'd get it done. The passenger side took 90 minutes from set up through clean up.
Everything seems to be working great so I'm pretty satisfied that I did the install myself. I haven't worked on cars outside audio/electrical stuff in a couple of decades.

Edit: Alignment of caster now at 4.0/3.8 everything else is in spec.
