Been so busy with life, finally had a chance to do some work on my sliders.

Nice looking rig. I like mods so far. Earlier you mentioned "thinking of spray painting the roof."

Did you ever give that mod a go?

Not yet, I think I might do a plastic wrap since it's cheaper.

Had a random misfire code so I am changing the sparkplugs. I'm surprised how dirty they are since I just changed them 25k ago...hopefully this will fix the p0300...

Oh and I hate you (pain in the rear just to change the plugs..)

I went ahead and do the gasket work as well..

I feel you man, I'm finally down to the heads on my rebuild, I swear there is always one more hidden bolt and hard to reach electrical connector... At least on the spark plug job it won't randomly piss coolant on you.

Have you replaced your EGR valve lately?

I'm doing that too, waiting for EGR pipe gasket to get here. I went to Auto zones and O Reilly they both don't have that piece.

Other than that, I got other EGR pieces.

The material on the sliders looks a little thin. It might tell you when you're hitting a rock or something, but if you drop the weight of the vehicle on them they'll just cause more damage than they're supposed to prevent. IMHO I know mine are Heavy, got them from trailgear.com for cheap and just welded the struts with the provided steel.

Hey Ray,

Amazing build, love all the pictures and explanations you've added to the thread. Do you happen to have anymore photos of your bed setup? I'm currently looking to do the same and would love to see how yours turned out!

Sorry, I had been so busy and haven't been updated for awhile. I changed my mind now and i will be doing a storage system instead with RTT.
