IMG_6910.JPG Another goodie arrived in the mail today... any suggestions for mounting locations? Right now I am looking at installing it under the passenger seat where the factory jack is. Figure the compressor could go there and then the switch and air line quick disconnect could go on the access cover on the side of the seat that hides the jack.

Well, the bumper is done, the rims and tires are spinning and I am onto the next stage of the build. Next up... get the dealership to replace the factory winch cable that was jacked up beyond measure and to start working on the bed rack for the tent...IMG_6945.JPG

I like the chrome. There isn't that much and it breaks up the front. Really like those recovery points!!!

Badass man! I say leave the chrome too. It breaks up colors so it don't blend together.

By chance are there any Photoshop gurus that can digitally black out the chrome for me so I can get a better idea as to what it would look like with the red accents?

I think you should black it out. I'm not a fan of chrome. I don't know how hot that compressor gets when it runs for a while, but that might be something to consider before mounting it in th cab. I know my cheap viair gets pretty warm after 4 tires. Yours might not though because of the better quality.

I like your style

Heres my 2012 superduty

I had to buy my disconnects and front locker after the fact... but ultimately its a wonderful truck, gasoline as well. Diesel is just more wieght... these trucks are heavy as it is.

How about this one? I am looking to black out the "chrome" on the grill, leaving the red accents... black to match the mat black on the bumper.

Great appreciation in advance!!!! Thanks dmurph1996
Should be able to get you something this afternoon once im out of work, they dont let me play with Photoshop in the office :( Going off of what @timberwolf_120 posted. Do you want the ram logo black too or do you want it red to match the grill? IMO the red would be a nice accent

IMG_6999.jpg While its not much.... I took the bed rack up to the fabricators to have it modified a bit so that it would fit the PW. The plan is to pick it up tomorrow. After that I will be able to mount the CVT Roof Top Tent. In the mean time... a little teaser from the down time that I had yesterday.

Finally got the bed rack finished and the tent mounted up... let the adventures begin...

Things left on the project list:
* Install the compressor
* Install the dual battery system
* Install the mounting hardware for the National Luna Fridge/Freezer
* Have the winch cable replace by the dealership
* Debating the idea of blacking out the chrome on the rear bumper (Plasti-dip... an easy solution until AEV comes out with a rear bumper)
* Debating the idea of blacking out the front grill (Again plasti-dip)
* Install the Cobra 75 CB and Firestik Antenna - tune
* Fix the issue with the tire rubbing on the front left tire... tire rubs at full lock.
