What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Not me. Someone in Texas drowned their 5th gen:

Installed a 3/4 Plywood platform and Dometic 50Q fridge with slider. Not the best craftsmanship but it works.

Picked up my truck from the shop having installed the Icon Stage 7 (billet) lift with the dual shocks upfront. She's sitting with a substantial rake, as I purchased the HD springs anticipating the weight of the Shrockworks rear bumper/tire carrier (order, and due mid Oct). Still, feels great driving and looking forward to adding the 285's.

Just got the notice from RCI that my skids will arrive on Friday. Can't wait to get those on next and take another shot at the winch control box relocation (or slight bend/shove to my power steering line).

I work in tech and got a free Stormtech - H2XTREME rain jacket with my company logo on the breast and a vendor name embroidered on the sleeve. I hate wearing company stuff so i repurposed this nice foul weather gear with a few patches. $7 later and I have a jacket I will actually wear!

New shoes for the wife's 2013 Limited! BFG KO2
275/70/17. Totally changes the look of the truck! Noticing some vibration around 55-60, hoping it settles.

That look reminds me of the guys in the city who wear jeans with a sport jacket and tie... whats that called, business casual? haha.

Looks like a new truck, I like it.
 
Not great pics, but got my Hefty Fabworks sliders installed and am very happy with them so far. Kinda hard to see the difference from the side view. I did have some issues getting some bolts in though.

All the holes in the mounting brackets lined up perfectly, but one of them on the rear passenger side bracket didn't line up to a threaded hole in the frame? Not sure what the deal is there, but will give them a call Monday. To date, their customer service has been excellent, so no problems there. The other one I couldn't get in because I couldn't move the KDSS lines out of the way enough. Will have to try that one again in a couple days.


Talked to Hefty, those two bolts I couldn't get in is normal. There's no threaded hole that will work on the passenger side and the drivers side bolt won't go in with the KDSS lines there. They said the sliders are load tested with only 4 bolts, so I feel pretty good about having 8 in on each side.

Thanks!

Haha! That's the perfect description! Or, business on the top, party on the bottom? :lol:
