2024 35 Raptor, just the way I wanted it with no moon roof and oxford white so I could fit my ARE shell which came of my now gone 22 Tremor which had issues from the start. I've added a DIY 12 V power panel to the starboard bedside cubby for interior/exterior lighting and power. Found an aftermarket/ebay grill to fill the gap in the bumper, and moved the Tuffy console safe over from the 22 T. Dawn enterprises door ding bumpers, black Gorilla lung nuts/locks, and Weathertech mud flaps. The ARE shell has Yakima tracks / crossbars and a locking Cap-Pack drawer for misc. storage which is really nice. I also added small plastic cleats to the sides of the tracks on the shell top to securely strap down whatever ends up on the roof when carrying the roof box and basket instead of relying only on the plastic risers. They also come in handy as lift points when lifting the shell off the truck. 4 clamps each side holding the shell to the bed with a double bubble EPDM seal which seems solid. Retiring soon and planning to do some mild overlanding across the country. With all the weight in the back I'm considering the Eibach springs in the rear being that the truck is level now without my boat trailer, or any overlanding or storm-run load. I'm also noticing that the backup lights seem really underpowered (hard to see backing into my driveway) so looking to add that and SDHQ ditch light mounts hooked to the upfitter switches. Getting a steady 17.5 MPG with 60% of the driving at 60-75 mph and 38 psi cold on the KO2's. Let me know what you think about adding the Eibach springs which they advertise as adding 1-1/2 inches.
