Picked up a set of 4 bead lock wheels, 500cad for the set off our local kijiji (buy & sell). Beauty rings are a little rough but they are just scuffs. So I'll prolly paint em and make them nice again.
I'll take some pictures tomorrow. Tho everyone knows what Gen 1 factory wheels look like.

Now the search for 1 for a matching spare begins.

I have a few that have scuffs on the wheels and the beauty rings need to be redone. PM on the way.

Swapped out the passenger side license plate light, since the socket on the old light had become a bit corroded and the LED light I installed a few months back was off more than it was on.

Did some off-roading on Friday, and the truck soaked up everything with ease. After buying a LT kit, I am always on the look out to hit some dirt.

I did some preventive maintenance on the truck today and will finish tomorrow. I figured I would share some of the stuff I am using.

I highly recommend running Camburg’s bushing grease for anybody that has LCA’s with polyurethane bushings. You will not find a better grease for your bushings! - https://camburg.com/shop/suspension/camburg-super-bushing-grease-14-oz-tube/

Also, make sure you have something to regularly maintain your heims - https://camburg.com/shop/suspension/tri-flow-heim-uniball-lube/

And lastly, I am going to do a little touch up on my suspension components with STEEL- IT - http://www.steel-it.com

I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure any aftermarket suspension set up will rust if the paint becomes chipped. I am using STEEL-IT to prevent rust from spreading on a few chips that I have on my LCA’s until I get the entire suspension lined with Kevlar.
