Sure, first of all, these are not Rigid's, they are Chinese cheapos with amber covers "eBay specials". Haha. You could even use amber film which would be even cheaper. Don't waist your money on expensive rear lights.

If you want to just install the lights now, leave yourself enough slack in the wires to extend them to your rack, once you get it. I also used waterproof quick disconnects incase I need to remove the bed cover. I didn't want to put holes in my rail caps.

Yea I can't make myself spend 1k+ on light bars and stuff like that. Hi ese will do lol

Installed fenders today

The fenders look awesome. But, I can't get past the fact that your flags are on backwards.

Those look to be exceptionally well fitted compared to others I've seen on here. What brand are they?

I think they are Boatecs, and i also think they look like they fit better than my factory fenders lol

Yes those are Boatecs and the flags are also irritating me. Jan the flag is meant to appear as it would if it were flying, i.e. the bars follow the stars. So since the inside from portion of the front valence is farther forward the stars should be on the inside, and the bars should fly behind them.

Last couple of weekends did some general maintenance....I'm at 85K, 2011.

Replaced all the tie rod ends and bearings in the UCA

Installed the Howe PS kit that was sitting in my garage for a few months.

Replaced the Steering Rack, Not needed, but did anyway since I was adding the Howe PS kit and wanted a spare rack for the Baja runs.

Replaced the battery, stocker died!

Was the install hard on the Howe kit? I'm looking into buying that kit, just haven't gotten around to it...

@JanT Fenders look really good, I do like the color!
And the flags should be switched around, the star fields will always face forward it gives the effect that the flag is flying in the breeze or charging forward, the flag will always appear to be charging forward and not backwards/never retreating.. Just a little info and meaning behind it.

X2 on the flags. Caught my eye immediately...

@NOLA I know you're in here somewhere buddy. I couldn't reply to your message or send you a new one so this is the next best thing. Anyway to answer you're question I do not have the exhaust. I figured I'd pick up the headers since they're such a good price and get the SW exhaust later on.
