Fox shocks came in today and so did the hood brackets. Pictures to come later tonight.

I got the shocks installed tonight with the roost shields. They are looking good. I didn't get the hood brackets on, they weren't quite a perfect fit so I had to do some grinding and more painting. Hope to get them on this weekend.

Washed up my old truck today. I might like that thing more than my new one.

Finally installed the hood brackets. Fun project but I don't know how many times I painted them and ground them down. After reading the horror stories about realigning your hood I just drilled a bigger hole for the back bolt and let the head stick through. I only had to remove the front bolt and nothing moved.

Are there two cubes on each of those hood brackets?

No that's just the reflection off my antenna. I thought it looked like that too.
