I had to change mine out to something different. Hopefully your experience is better than mine, but trust me it will be worth the extra cost to have 1 or 2 extras lying around.
Keep up the awesome work!

Thanks for the compliments and advice. That’s a good call on the extra caps. I need to jump on that.

Hoping for more progress in the near future once I get some extra muscle to move the bed back on the frame.

Had a buddy swing by the other weekend and help me place the bed back on the frame. Then, over the next couple of weeks a managed to get my grill and tailgate in paint. They turned out looking good. I plan on painting the letters later down the road. Last week I taped everything off and sprayed a bed liner kit. I’m really happy with how that turned out

My father in law swung by yesterday and helped me install the tailgate. Had a heck of a time getting it to fit right, but after messing with it today, I’ve almost got it!

Will plan on getting the grill installed soon and possibly break out the wiring harness.
