    Endlinks is about an inch short. Anyone know if I could use the endlinks from bds for a 4.5" lift?

    Gotcha. I wonder if rotating the brackets on the axle 90 degrees would bring it up.

    I think something would be in the way. I just gotta find longer endlinks.

    Experimented (unfortunately) with "cheap" ebay GM style tow mirrors. Well 5 fuses later, the mirrors still wouldn't adjust. So started a return, patiently waiting for the Boost Auto manual fold's to come back in stock. After checking everyday for 3 weeks, I finally reached out to Boost's sales staff. 36 hours later, I received an email that they had no ETA for when they'd be back in stock. Well 3 hours after I received that email, I received the notification they were indeed back!!! I couldn't order them fast enough. These are upgraded from the OEM style. I don't know what the normal mirrors are like on these, so I have no comparison to the OEM style. But upgrading from the OEM tows to the Boost tows is night and day. No more passenger side deadly blind spot. The (high output) back up spots are amazing. Did I mention no blind spot on the passenger side. The 2 upgrades I got was the high output spots, and signal/marker 1.0. Not cheap, but worth the peace of mind and safety factor.

    Finally ordered and installed the driver’s side grab handle today. Like everyone says, about 20 minutes. Cutting the notch for the wire bundle was the longest part of the whole thing, and that was 5 minutes. Sparks delivered the kit with the extra bolt, washer and flange nut that you need. My local dealer parts guy couldn’t even find it as an option for my truck.

    Installed my TRD replacement dirty deeds exhaust and tail pipes. I cut them so they both dump after the rear axle. Welded on some exhaust tips and damn I am happy. After I installed the JBA long tubes and 3 inch after market cats, the truck was noisy and sounded like a cherry bombed 80’s camaro, now it isn’t loud, but still sounds bad ass. Cruising at about 75 mph, the tires noise on my ridge grapplers is actually alittle louder than the exhaust.

    Spent all afternoon cutting a crazy amount of shitty wiring/harnesses out from around my battery and behind the grille and everywhere else. Previous owner had bargain LED headlights with drivers, and must have had light bars and lots of accessory crap, and then just cut it all out before trading it in. It was all so shoddy. Ripped it all out and replaced the corroded battery terminals with commerical grade ones. Plus did the "ultimate headlight upgrade" with osram bulbs and a Headlight Services custom harness. The harness is such high quality, would definitely recommend it! Here's the mess I removed

    While I had the grille off I noticed these 2 wires hanging around ... Anyone know what they're for?

    In your second picture it looks like the wire and connector for the second horn based on how it splits. Do you have only one horn behind your grill?

    Thanks for the compliments. I bought the headlight harness from @iHacker. Quality guy / part and plug and play to the ‘19 TRD Pro black headlights afterwards. The Rigid fogs were plug and play but you’ll also need new bezels. I bought the ‘21 Rigid fogs from a good member here, but you can get new from Sparksparts, McGeorge online, or other.

    Just installed this bad boy yesterday. It’s the kenwood DMX7706S. Got a good price for it being an open box item and the mic was missing so took a couple bucks off it from Best Buy. They even do free installation and the tech there was very detailed with what I needed to keep factory things like steering wheel controls and usb. The job came out really professional as well. Couldn’t be happier. Will be looking to get a wireless adapter for wireless CarPlay.

    Install was pretty easy, but I'm also getting pretty good at pulling my door panels and replacing mirrors:rolleyes: Boost provides detailed instructions(if needed) and also the location to hook up the reverse lights to. I already had my drivers side fished into the cab from the E-bay lights. So I just had to fish the wires in the passenger side. If I had to guess, total time would be about 2-3 hours, with fishing the 2 doors and hooking up the reverse lights. I'm going to change that wiring in the future to a double pole switch. That way I can have them on with reverse, off completely, and on anytime. Figured those options would be good for camping.
