What happened to Rich?

[Bozo]

Thanks, I got my Lund toolbox ordered the other day. Bellow rail design an coated with rhino lining. So there's allot of variables that I've calculated an it's gonna be close. So you all know I have the 30k fiver puck hitch in the truck now. Well the bed from floor to top of rail is 20". The box will be 19" and the backflip sits down I side the bed between 3/4" and an 1", so yah it's gonna be close. I'm hoping that weather proof cushion that the tonnue cover comes with will lift up the cover just enough to make the difference. Now also for all who know how the bak flip works. The first panel is 8" which stayes put an every panel after that is about 24" an they all fold up so I'm probably not going to be able to put tool box right against head board an will probably have to set back about 6" so the lid can fully open. So according to my calculations in the first 30" , i can leave the cover folded to wich will cover the box but set back far enough for travel of the fiver hitch. What's the odds of all this working out. Makes sense in my head.

Close is good enough......in horseshoes. I am sure you’ll figure something out.

Rich, I wish you luck.
I have been doing some research as I too and faced with the same dilemma. I want to go with THEFUELBOX FTC60T 57 Gal fuel tank tool box combo which will be .5 inch lower than bed rails, and 3 inches narrower than the bed rails, and the lid will be a total 8 inches narrower than the bed rails. This should give me enough room for a cover of some kind if it doesn't hang below the bed rails above the lid of the combo box. Now if I can get that figured out, the combo box will need the first 23 inches of the truck bed (it has to attach to the bed floor and front part of the truck bet with only 1 or 2 inches of space. So that means ,I will need the first lid of the bed cover to open backwards at least 27 inches so I can reach in and open the latches to the combo box.... MAN, I've Have a Head Ache Now !!!!

I feel yah on the head ache, I've measured that bed every wich way an I'm cautiously optimistic but realistic. So I'm just hoping I can find a specific sweet spot that the Lund box will fit under the Bak flip because I really want both. Now on to you, so 50 gallons wasn't enough, you had to go with 107 Gal. You no, you have to stop an pee at some point, unless your the pee in the bottle kind of guy an if you are, just make sure the lid is on good. Few we

So here is a pick, Wich is better looking, obviously the chrome would not be as shiny as the aluminum foil but you get the drift.

I like the looks of the chrome. I debated the same thing on my 2019 Granite Crystal. It’s all a matter of personal opinion! Great looking truck you have!

Seriously, there are some crazy good paints out there to accomplish a very shiny chrome like finish.

Get me a can of that billet silver spray

I'd like to see some folks post some pics of some all painted sport packages that added chrome hooks

So I figured out my own dilemma, the dome defeat button was on and that bypasses all door illumination. So does anyone have a trick on the downward mirror function in reverse on how to not get them to go down quite so far

The only solution I know of, is use the second memory for that. Kind of a pain, but better than the look at the pavement in front of the rear tire auto mode.

Now theres an idea. Hopefully you didn’t forget to make the dealer give you some touch up paint with delivery.

Yo bro, I just printed out my personnel build sheet where we got a ton of pgs of everything on your specific truck. The equipment list with all the standards an options. We went through everyone an checked marked it if it was present an working correctly. Tedious i know. A couple hours very well spent for us though

Found this link a bit ago about the fuel heater melting recall on the Cummins motors an if you read it toward the bottom they point out the primary vehicles for recall is the truck brand INTERNATIONAL. So wer should be good

Nearly 70,000 diesel engines recalled for fuel heater melting risk

Cummins is issuing a major recall for a fuel heater defect that could result in a fire or a crash.
