    I'm still running the stock tire carrier. The slant carrier I was looking at requires a new tire carrier to work. Between the 2. I was looking at $600 +. So I'm going to hold off on that for now. And I'm afraid if I went with a set up like yours. If would be to much stress on the tail gate.

    Update: Talked to Quadratec today. Sent their customer service rep the pics I posted here. And he agreed, some didn't look right. Even if I layed that top in the sun for 6 hours to loosen it up. It wouldn't have relaxed enough to fit. So anyway. He has another top on its way, along with a paid return shipping label for the defective top. Awesome. Their customer service is second to none. Will post pics when installed. :)


    Edit.....almost forgot. So what was your bonehead issue? Come on dude. Your amongst friends. We'Lloyd only laugh for a minute or two......maybe. :smack:

    Picked up a set of Rubi take offs to replace my very worn sport tires/wheels. I was only looking for something to get me by until early next year when I do the lift/gears/35’s. Picked them up for 500.00 and think I will be able to get that out of them when I buy the new stuff.

    Yep, most the the listings in my area are a 1000.00 so I am hoping that once I get the work done and order new shoes I will be able to resell them for what I paid or slightly more.

    Yeah....very nice at a great price. I almost went with a knock off of that Rubi wheel. Was going to pick up a couple rattle cans of my Crystal Granite and repaint them myself. Opted for another wheel in the end. Nice pick up Brian.

    Got the new kicks on. Only downside it the TPMS sensors don’t sync up so I have an annoying fault that pops up on the dash but other than that I like them.

    DO you have a Superchip? You can fix that annoying idiot light. Any reprogrammer should be able to fix that for ya.. Just tap into your OB Puter.

    Will post an update on my install this weekend. Second attempt. Really hope it works out this time. :).
