I have seen places that sell the spacers and bolts as a kit but shouldn't be to hard to make it yourself from spacers at the hardware store. Looks like the kits are typically 3/4".

Got the deck off, tonneau cover on and cleaned her up... Also found some handy storage bags that clamp to the bed.  Works great to help organize the hitches and straps and stuff...

Looks good! How do the saddle bags clamp on? How much are they? Take my money. Thanks

They have a metal bar that runs through the back. Then they have clamps that would hold it onto the bed rail. I just used the existing clamps from my cover and hung it from them. 

 

They were on clearance at the Canadian tire store here for $10. I had to buy them. Lol.

325 65 18 Dura trac's? Looks great, I'm tore between narrow and wide tires this time around. Had 325 65 18's on the last truck, and at 10 mpg, I'm shying away from the typical wide tire look I like so much. Looks great.

thanks, i'm definitely not setting any fuel mileage records with this setup..... getting 20-21 Litres per 100km general driving now that the roads are nice and dry and i am not having to warm up the truck for winter.... (24/25 in the winter....)  not sure what would technically be better for mileage... 35x12 or these which work out to a 34.6 x 12.8....      but doesn't matter for me now i guess cause i'm not changing out tires.... expensive out in Canada!, these cleared the front end well, on the front bumper at the most akward angle possible turning my tire it comes within a pinky width distance to the metal edge of my front bumper.... not sure if that would contact changing tire sizes and i'm happy i didn't have to pull out the sawzall to make them fit lol.  (although if i did do a tire change in the future i will prolly do the 1/2 inch bumper mod to negate any concerns if i went slightly taller.... but i do love the extra width!.

 

 

edit... i just put a yard and a half ish of limestone in my truck,  after i went down a steep hill and applied mediumish brake pressure than my tires actually DO contact the front bumper edge... by like 2mm...  i heard a little zing and found a clean spot on the bumper.....  apparently when it has 3500 pounds or so sitting in the box it may rub... *did 2 loads only heard it once..*   actually flattened out less than i thought....  i usually have 1 inch rake with the bds 4.5 kit (3 inch rear) i was 1 inch low on the rear with all the limestone... 2 inchs down isn't to shabby.. i was worried i was going to need airbags possibly for travel trailer (10,000 gross) and boat... but think it's gonna be fine, tongue weight 900 pounds boat + accessories camping crap in truck bed maybe another 6-800 pounds....  should sit level i hope!.
