Beadlocks are a pain in the arse! And even more so when its 40s! A couple 5 gal buckets are your friend when doing them. Sit the wheel and tire on the bucket to get it off the ground and it helps the tire to hang down. This will help the lip to stay where it needs to on the wheel so you can get the ring on. I also use another 5 gal bucket and a little pillow to sit on. Have even put that on my creeper so I can roll around in a circle around the tire.

Came out great and PLENTY of light now !!
Thanks John !!

Still have to get a more screw in each light as it’s a super tight fit on the exhaust side
Plus i have a magnaflow exhaust so not sure if the tips on that are bigger then stock

But regardless was pretty simple with the long harness up to the upfitter switch

Been a while....

Few months back got the hood wrapped in matte black Avery.

Next up was a lovely set of door dings from some **** in a HD parking lot. Quickly surveyed friends on PDR knowingly full well aluminum is more difficult and I'd want somebody with "time in the game"

I took the door card off the night before - as PDR was billed hourly.

I had resigned myself to needing body/paint work and was somewhat taken back by the bag of meat hooks the PDR guy had. It was actually artistic the approach he took, incredible to watch!

I had an excellent PDR guy. He learned his art in Alberta where they get regular hail damage. Truly, you couldn’t see the damage at all.
Sadly he shut down.
