Added Yakima Hullraiser Kayak racks to my bed rack system. I'm limited to 10ft long Kayaks, but that's exactly what I need.

I love the Yakima Bedrock system since it allows me to have two levels of cargo space. And best of all, I can take the whole thing down in about 5 minutes if I need to move something big like a couch.

Also, unlike a roof rack, I don't worry about things hitting my garage if I forget anything on it, no wind noise and no drag and lost of fuel economy.

nice looking rig and if you haven't been told welcome to the forum. Quick question for you. How much wt do you have on the tailgate with that sled? I'm wondering if the max wt over the tailgate has changed. To be honest I can't remember what the 12' was. Maybe 300lbs.

thanks. sled full of fuel is only about 600lbs--i would guess under 200 is on the tailgate and its spread out pretty well including on the end of the bed as well. if my 08 tacoma could take it and not bend the tailgate then this way beefier (thicker) tailgate should be fine.

Default Caliper and Rotor painting

I was considering painting my calipers. They're brand new, so it should be a breeze. It occurred to me that it would be a good time to hit the inner part of the rotors too. They always get rusted bad and are obvious.

I have blue jeans. Was thinking of red for the calipers. Then I thought the rotors too, may be too much red. Maybe black down there?

I have a friend who just bought a 2016 F150 4X4 with the 5.0 engine- he is looking for a Procal tuner for it- but I am not seeing where Ford has one available- any help? Anyone had good luck with an aftermarket one?

The best option would be an SCT X4 or LiveWire
There are also vendors on here that sell them.

Alea Napa Leather Seat Covers. Was able to design them as they have many many options. The quality is the best I've seen.

The red matches my Race Red Truck all but perfect.

I'll add to this, the Pro Cal tuner has limited options. Very very limited options. What is your friend wanting to use the tuner for? Base that on whether you purchase the SCT X4, SCT LiveWire or the Procal tuner. To answer your question, a Ford Dealership should have the Procal or be able to get it. They are available on many online stores. American Muscle I believe has it. You can use the SCT canned tunes or get someone like 5 Star or MPT to email you customs tunes. Customs tunes cost extra, also 5 Star has a warranty if you look at their website that can be purchased if their tunes cause damage.
