Finally programmed tire size and enabled the transmission current gear display.

Also, I dropped the spare and cut the heat shield a-la- @Crusty old shellback so that my spare would fit better underneath.

While I was under there, I did some poking around. I have a dead-plugged connector next to the RF receiver, behind the license plate (assuming for my non-optioned trailer camera plug on the bumper). I also found the shrink wrapped wire for a topper third brake light. Interesting enough, there were two other wires taped to it; one thick and one thin. I am assuming this is the rear aux power leads if I had the second PDB and aux switches.

Fun, stuff!

I also took the angle grinder from my heat shield sculpting to my decked system. I had to notch out space for the bed mounted outlet cover to open. Previously, the decked system blocked it from opening.
 
Finished up my ‘22, 6.4 Tradesman
Falken Wildpeaks and Fuel Blitz wheels finally arrived.

Very nicely done! Question on the Timbrens, do they help when towing a large trailer? I have a 32 foot with about 1K on the hitch and about 500-700 cargo in the bed at times, afraid to level the front without doing something about it first. Thanks.
 
Installed Luminex reverse LED bulbs ND rotated my tires. We'll see how well the lights work tomorrow morning!

Camlocker box finally came in....got the standard depth so I could still put several sheets of plywood in all the way and the low profile for GN towing....it's my first bed toolbox...it looks good and is really well built just having stuff permanently mounted in my bed irks me...I think I'll conform over time tho as the storage and usability is nice.....it's 20" wide so I can still see most of the puck plastic but since I use the b&w raised ball I can see it just fine with the chmsl camera....

What are the specs of original lights vs luminex? I wonder how big the difference is.

Go for it! I tried using the load flat floor as it but it’s not quite stable/flat enough on its own. I only had 3/4 plywood on hand, so it’s now good to go and very stable.

Did you make something to hold it even? I think it is a great idea in general.
