Well not today but a few weeks ago I had the 2 fronts tinted 20% to match the rears. When I lived in Las Vegas my brother owned a tint and detail shop so it would go straight from the dealer to his shop for tint. Since I moved to KS 4.5 years ago I actually had to find a tiny shop.

Hi Folks,

Installed the magnetic door handle protectors. No heat gun required. Just put in the Arizona sun for about an hour...Then liked them so much I ordered 4 more for the Nautilus...Darn you Rick...now you cost me $46!

Phil, at least you bought new ones for your Ranger as opposed to hand me downs from a Tacoma! ;)

Replaced the OEM antenna with a stubby jr. Let's see if size really does matter.

Side note: I ordered the antenna on Amazon, and they sent me the wrong one. I contacted Craven speed, and they put the correct one in the mail the same day. Portland to Richmond va in 3 days. If you're temped to buy one, go straight to them. I should have.

So Phil, does this mean you're starting a tuxedo theme now (black/white)?:like:
Hi Terry,

Well...not intended....but it matches the step bar and the fender vent :)

Wanted to take a little strain off the rear suspension while towing our Travel trailer so I installed the Air Lift load lifer 5000 series airbags today. The installation was simple and straight forward. Unloaded and with the recommended minimum air pressure, it lifted the rear about 1/4”. I have a 2 1/2” leveling kit up front so the stance still looks good.
My plan is to eventually add the onboard air compressor. But for now I combined both bags to one valve that I placed next to the receiver.
