Lights - I don't like the rigids that fit in the bumper holes. Low power. ADD and Rigid have promised "early in 2017" custom lights for the holes. The middle hole (yes in front of the intercooler) is smaller than Gen 1's. I want a amber back lit, high intensity white on separate switches. Also, I have been watching the forscan thread on the FB page and it looks promising. Auto mirror fold, double horn with key out, etc. As soon as they figure out the "disable the auto off" button I am buying.

I'm probably going with the baja designs kit or the M and R kit for lights.

I'm ordering that gibson MWA muffler today and then add a CAI once AFE gets their's to market.

Then probably the SVC level system once that is out, but maybe not. The slight rake doesn't bother me much.

I saw some negative about the amount of light from the BD kits but only from one person. I personally don't like the cooling fins and the mud collecting in them. CAI is definitely on the list. I was about to pull the trigger on the RPG level kit - Any opinion on why SVC over RPG?

I'd check out FRF for the details. Svc is adjustable. Rpg gives you 1.625" lift. I don't want to be nose high. The rpg kit would be very close to that. I'm guessing after the springs settled a bit that you would be ok, but I don't want to take the chance.

Thanks Scrap - When are you at Assault school? I am looking at late Sept or Oct. We fly fish up in ID, MT, Yellowstone the first couple weeks of Oct and was trying to make only one trip out west.

Scrappy, you can not just let it sit there, lol. Have you heard magnaflows new one for the gen 2. Sounds decent, but its a cat back system. They have a painted stainless that goes further under the truck then factory. Looks nice. You will have to put up a sound clip for us,when your done.
