Any updates?

Would you be able to take a picture of the rack mounted to the factory rails? Also, thoughts on LEDs throw distance, do you feel they were adequate for on highway duty?

Has anyone found information on the diffs/lockers? Tell me the front diff is backwards compatible with older gen trucks.

Great build. I enjoy the metal frame with the inserts, I think that is a great design.

Sweet more HTX folks. Love the LX.

Stock wheels and factory offset are pretty tricky maintaining clearances on newer GMs. Even with a 285 I believe you’ll still get some amount of rubbing on the factory sway bar at full lock. I am opting for the the 275 KO2s as I end up needing full lock steering regularly in the land of parking...

Update!

Build thread here or somewhere else?

I would look for a pre 2007 or 2014+. Currently have an 07 that has had a few minor issues, nothing major, but agreed the build quality is just not that great. If you get an 07-13 Make sure you get the ~09+ and the 6 speed tranny. To be honest, with the incentives the way they are with the...
