You said those are from Rocky Road? Are they the Rockrails or Supersliders? I'm having a hard time telling what's what on their site but plan on getting a set from them

Mine are the supersliders. Their website is absolutely terrible.

Got some new backup lights. Flood pattern SS1’s sports. Quite the ordeal to get them in but glad it done with. Super happy with them.

I would like more information on the install of the reverse lights please! Did you wire the red back lighting to the brake lights? Did you need to remove the bumper or anything?

 

[Flowgod]

That would be awesome. Just saw where you said you drilled 24 holes total

No removal of the bumper. Just making sure you have space behind where you want the lights. The hardest part for me was the wiring. Running from the battery all the way to the back bumper was kinda a pain. So Diode Dynamics has all the wiring and hardware you need. You tap into your back running lights for the red backlight (or whatever color you choose) and reverse lights for the main beam.
When it comes to cutting the holes for the bumper they give you a stencil to guide you where to cut. You can also print them out from their website if you need to. I used a Dremel with metal cutting wheel to cut the holes

I figured I should make a build thread and all the stuff I have done to my truck. My nickname for my truck is lil' guy. Here is a big photo dump of my truck's progression.

Great looking truck. I see a lot of the pictures here guys have the shackles in their recovery points. Do you leave them in all the time? I only install the shackles when i need to hook up the recovery gear. just curious.

Yeah I just have them for looks to be honest. I threw some thread lock on there so they aren’t as easy to steal. I have another shackle set in my truck for recoveries and stuff

I was curious how fast they wear out the recovery point?

There is a little bit of wear but it’s not a ton

Finally got all my SS3’s. Threw them up just to see how they look and lit um up to check the brightness. Very bright.

Hey man love the build. I apologize if it's listed on here somewhere and I missed it but what mud flaps are those?
