Thanks - i personally don't like the red lol. The UCA's joints are up for a rebuild so im going to powdercoat the UCA black before slapping it back together.

1st ever night in a rtt. We got home late after our trip to ashville so i set up in the driveway. Temps got down below freezing the new north face one bag is amazing. I slept in shorts and a tshirt and stayed warm all night. I got the yakima skyrise 2 rtt. Perfect for my needs and install was super easy on my prinsu rack.

what did i do?
i went to the dealership looking for a pro and got stupid quotes so i walked.
went to another dealer and got a killer deal on an 18 off road premium with KDSS. So i traded my 15 trail edition premium for the off road premium.
My son is confused because he thinks i painted the truck and got new tires because they're shiny...
the rack, HIDs and LED fog lights went on already. Volks most likely tomorrow and it only has 58 miles.
Now looking for a KDSS friendly lift, front and rear bumpers and sliders.
feel free to shoot recommendations. Got a quote for dobinsons already with offset springs for the lean.
i want a no cut front bumper and a nice rear so if the truck gets clipped again in the parking lot it will **** up their car and maybe scratch my bumper.

Admittedly, I'm afraid of the dark. 
To help cope I added an Extremeled 44 inch X6 series light bar and some Baja Design's Squadron Pro Combo Beams! Mounted the X6 on my prinsu rack. Had to drill 2 holes through one of the cross bars. The Squadron's are mounted on SDHQ brackets.
Was only able to get a night shot with everything installed.
Set my phone to manual mode. 1/5 shutter speed, 800 iso, daylight filter.
Here is a control shot:
XenonDepot 4300k HID Kit (lowbeam) and stock fog lights:
Amber wide beams on X6 light bar with headlights and fogs:
X6 light bar fully lit with spot/amber wides plus headlights/fogs (notice the lack of glare on the hood thanks to the prinsu wind deflector):
The full enchilada. BD Squadron Pro's, X6, headloghts/fogs:
I have the Squadrons pointed slightly wide while the light bar takes care of the center.
Once I finally get my group buy bumper from C4 fab I'll be throwing my x6s slim bar down low for foggy situations. Lights are fun.

Awesome looking rig- was thinking the same thing- sadly the uniballs wont last the winter- get some silicone spray- to try and fight off the salt.

No, they give you measurements to cut your bumper. I bought a wrecked bumper off eBay and trimmed it up to install. The side pieces were still good.

First snow!!! I live in Austin, Tx.
That’s a rare weather event. I’m in interior Alaska and should be below zero by now, but we’re in the 20s lol.
Anyways... curious about your light set up? Looks like BD for fogs. I have the earlier 5th gen as well. You mind posting pics of the front.
