I meant Dually as just the generic name haha...interesting. I'm looking to see if I can incorporate a set of cube ambers in addition the 6" bars and 40" bar on the Bravo bumper. I'll probably get one after I do wheels/tires and RPG Stage 2.

With a custom bracket(basically price of flat metal with holes drilled in the right spots? It would be doable bit the 6" would have to go all the way to the outside and the cube would have to go on the inner tab. Where I have my cube set u can go any further out as it will rub on the bumper and possibly wear off the powder coating.

I hear ya on doing rear suspension first. That was my plan till I damaged my OEM bumper. Next month is progressive leaf springs. Can't wait to get rid of the ****** stock springs and blocks. Tired of wheel hop and the shutter it gets

Had the graphics shop install the 2013 graphics that I left off when I originally ordered the truck.

Installed the vinyl door sill OEM kit that Ford in their wisdom left off our trucks.

I ordered these sweet cnc bar clamps anodized black from UTVINC
I have 3 sets that'll be here tomorrow for my dually's. (2 sets up front and 1 set for my red dually's that imma be tieing into my brake lights. I'll also have them on a switch for when the weathers bad or someone's riding my ***. I can flip on some "legal" red bright brake lights to stay more aware). Lol. I've also noticed red lights doesn't drown out the reverse camera. Try using your brakes the next time backing up and you'll see.

They come in many sizes that you have to specify when ordering. Shipped out pretty quick too. The only negative, the bar clamps are $69 a set if I'm not mistaken.

I tried tying my Rigid Duallys (diffused white in ADD rear bumper) into my reverse lights, followed all the wiring correctly, but every time I tried I blew the fuse and/or relay. Three different attempts. I finally just have them wired to a switch. Next attempt will be using the center pin wire of the trailer harness.

Let me know how the red Duallys work with the brake light wiring. Also, how do you make the lights work on a switch AND tied into the brake lights? I've learned a lot about wiring since buying my Raptor - but can't do anything too tricky yet!

If your cnc clamps are anything like the Axia clamps, they are pricey! I use one for my flag whip on my chase rack - the one clamp is $45.

Now Opertion Exhaust is in Progress ege4a8e4.jpg

Install went awesome about an hour to do both exhaust and Throttle Body Spacer.

Very happy with the outcome, almost no drone inside the cab, sounds a little more than OEM inside. Now on the outside its a different story it has its nice growl and when you floor the gas pedal it unleashes the beast within, still on the inside not that much drone, sounds awesome. Very Very Happy.

Also bought the SCT X3, waiting for Monday to custom dynotune the truck :D ;) :sly:

U have to use a certain diode. A member in HARO, used a special trailer brake unit that takes the line and doesn't allow any back feed into your electrical system when you flip the switch to "on". When "off", the unit allows the trigger power to travel back to your light. They usually tap off the backup lights and use a switch. I'll be tapping off the brake lights via trailer connection and also use a switch for constant on like so. I'll send u a pm on specifics, I'm waiting on Carlos to send me a picture of the unit he used. He says it's easy as cake. I seen the unit on a Facebook group thread but.....I wish Facebook had a search feature for group posts or I'd be able to pull it back up
