Are the bed supports a necessity on the Gen 2? I do moderate off-roading at most, generally BLM and mining roads.

How to install a complete new OEM alarm system with auto start in order to get the “shock sensor“ feature. Fairly straightforward plug-and-play acceot for drilling a small hole to mount the optional LED blinking indicator light. I ended up buying the Baja MOD Shock sensor bracket, lined up perfectly with existing bolts and it’s nice and the with the factory look. There is a knob on this unit that allows you to adjust the sensitivity, works very well

The dealership sort of took care of it for me. My insurance paid for the wheels and tires ($11,500 repair bill) but the dealership absorbed my $1,000 deductible, as well as the $400 or so in betterment I was supposed to pay for the new tires.

I think gr8scott_0, whose post I was originally responding to, is taking a great risk by leaving his truck at the dealership for a few days waiting for parts. In hindsight, I regret not having picked up my truck and then taken it back when the parts were in. It was certainly sickening to see my Raptor sitting on cement blocks.
Got it back a whole week early! No missing wheels/tires, but they did rotate them for free :)

Point taken on the "leave it with the dealer" thing.

Oh yeah, also had a leaking, cracked valve cover which they replaced under warranty.

please tell me you wired it up so that the light goes from green to red the closer you get to the wall... either way thats one cool garage ornament!
I had really considered that, but no it just cycles like a regular traffic light. I also have a walk/don't walk light, but not sure where I'm going to hang that one yet.
