Ryan's 2020 Build

Looks awesome. Question about your power step. I have a 2018 screw and I’m about to order the amp power step and OBD adaptor. Is there a specific one I need or will any of them work? I want to be able to plug the power step and the Cobb at the same time.

Thanks,

Eddie.

Yes. I ordered the Amp Research passthru harness for that reason specifically.

Got the 37’s on today. Some minor rubbing to contend with at lock and articulation but I’m still waiting on my shocks and springs. I also have to change out the lip bolts to black and get the caps on.

All in all, I’m happy with it.

I did the ADD bumper as well and I see the same white sticker on drivrer side frame rail. I can't get that thing off!

Looking good man let us know how you like the suspension setup when you get it done

It mostly peels off but then blast the rail with some flat black rustoleum and you are good to go.

Yeah, spray paint is my next option. That is some super adhesive!

Just take a wheel to it. Buffs off without too much difficulty.

A little bit of rear end progress over the last couple weekends in my home garage. Got the new ADD rear bumper on with Rigid cubes tucked inside. And then the big one is slapping the Deaver +3’s (what a pain!), RPG bumps (Fox), and the Fox Racing 3.0 Live Valves. Unless lifting 200+ pounds is easy for you, I recommend using some ratchet straps to help get the Deavers in place. I mostly muscled them in.

Sits a lot more level now and the ride is impressive. No more hopping and super smooth.

An astute observer will notice I don’t have the Fox 3.0’s up front anymore. I returned the first set and I’m riding on some Geiser springs temporarily until the replacement Fox coils show up in June. Summit Racing was a total champ at accepting my return! Can’t say enough about them.

Ryan, awesome build.

Did you get the KHC slot delete kit installed? Curious the install difficulty in the garage...?

Yep I got it slapped on there as well. No major snags - just take your time. The hardest part is getting enough leverage on the torque wrench to button it back up to like 280 ft lbs or whatever it is, so if anything I'd recommend jacking your rig up real high to give you as much room as possible. Or just use impacts if that's your thing.

The latest update is that I've thrown in the Cobb Stage Two kit with the TCM adjustment as well. That's... a night and day difference for this truck. And, RPG found me a set of front Fox 3.0's that I've been waiting months for. Those are now on, but aren't pictured here. Last but not least, I'm waiting on the VelocityAP exhaust to show up from Canada.

I think I'm getting close to calling this truck "done". Still debating the KHC flat tire carrier.
