If you pull back the rug from the elevated front edge (there are push pin thingies holding it) there is a grommet/body plug directly under where your compressor is mounted. You could even just grab something to poke up from underneath if'n you intend to hide that wiring. Used that route from the bed to the dash. Came up through the floor, ran the wire towards the door and used the doorsill covers to run and hide the wiring....Just saying.
Yeah that’s exactly what I did, ram the wires along the door sill and thru the firewall, and then put a bulkhead hose fitting thru the body plug, and ran air lines to the front and rear bumpers.
All the extra wire will be trimmed to length and better hidden, I just flopped it over for the picture.

All wired up and functional now. Might try to find some different fittings to clean up the pressure switch and line-out placement, but it’s ok for now. I’ll probably posting the bracket at some point too, but it’s dry enough in Colorado I’m not worried about rust, since it’s in the cab.

Also under the door sill there at the rear door, driver's side, the wiring bundle has that white wire with the tan tracer. If'n you wanted to add an additional interior light/storage bin light, etc., that's a good place to tap it. That's the cargo light wire. Energizes with the doors opened, keyless entry unlock command and the cargo light button.

Don't mind the dirty truck. This time of year in Michigan is never good for keeping them clean, especially out on the dirt roads..

Got the Raptor Series 5" Oval Nerf Bars and the Gator SFX Tri-Fold Tonneau cover on today. The bars only took 2 hours to get on. My wife is happy...she can now get into the truck (she's 5'1" tall).

Thank you for posting the pics. Been trying to decide which flaps to go with. I saw a post about the Weather tech ones hitting the factory boards, which is what I will have if truck ever gets built. Are the Husky's a no drill install like the Weather Techs?

Had a ton of Xpel film put on my truck when I first got it. Front and rear bumpers, front of the hood, rocker panels, the tailgate, headlights, mirrors and dually flare. Well worth the money. Your dually flare WILL get chipped up without it.
Thanks. I'm going to look into it.

Thanks brother!!! We've been hit pretty hard since August between 3 major hurricanes and winter storm of the century.
We certainly appreciate the help from our brothers around the country.

Nice pic on the Method NV305's, did you get the HD's? Took an extra month to get the HD's when I ordered them. Even worse, they scratched the same rim twice and had to replace twice. Needless to say it had taken 2 months to get the full set.

Looks like Falken Wildpeaks?

I have a bakflip on my 2019 1500 and it leaks like a sieve. Their customer service solution was to use some caulk...seriously....I will not get another one for my 2500.
I returned the BakFlip before it arrived as I heard they leak like crazy. I have a Diamondback arriving on March 1st, they say it will not leak at all. Pricey, but if it doesn't leak, I'll be happy and always wanted a bed cover I could put a load on top of.
