[QUOTE="ayoustin, post: 1558438, member: 28480"] Haha, yes it took tons of scouring dealer sites to find an 801a without the applique. I don't think the applique looks bad, it's just not my preference. I tend to gravitate to more simple looks. As for corrosion protection, I like to spray vehicles I drive in the winter with a product called Woolwax. It's very similar to Fluid Film but it sprays a bit thicker and they make it in black so it blends on the frame very nicely. I'll be spraying the frame and suspension this week and then I'll be picking up some frame plugs and Husky rear liners. I plan to keep this truck for as long as I possibly can, so hopefully 20-30 years. While it still has a warranty I don't plan to mod the drivetrain, just to keep life simple. So for now the only things planned outside of corrosion protection is getting the bed line-x'ed, some decent fog lights, getting the front windows tinted to match the rear, and possibly a dual catch can kit. I kept my beadlock wheels off my gen 1. I'm trying to decide if I want to use those on the new truck or keep the new beadlocks that came with it. I found a few guys who threw the gen 1 beadlocks on their gen 2 but none of them are oxford white trucks so still kind of on the fence about that. Whichever set I end up keeping I'll buy a set of the FP lock rings for. [/QUOTE]
