That list is shrinking nicely Tylus, good job so far!
Will you be fabbing/building the custom roof rack or will you have to outsource that job? I don't need and really can't use one but I have always wanted to build a custom roof rack. I have been thinking about fabbing one up for my little Suzuki Vitara but there isn't very much metal up top to mount it to.
I have a 110v welder. Gotten lots of practice welding on my '86 Bullnose doing rust repair recently.
Found a neat DIY Tutorial where you can use an angle grinder to section the bar just enough to bend. Then you are only welding 1 seam instead of butt welding. The rack is my project after I get done with the X repairs. Going to make sure it also doesn't look ridiculous on the Tahoe, as we may need it for longer trips.

Seriously, if you are looking for volunteers, count me in I don't have the skills or tools. But I wouldn't mind having to drive up to PA and fund the project
and as always. the first mod I do to every truck I get
What brackets are those holding the flashlight? Nice and simple mod. My maglite sits in the cubby on the door and keeps rattling every time I close the door. Drives me nuts
17" long, but only 2" are usefully threaded after I cut them down so a socket would fit for torquing. Stupid long for X application. I bought based on fitting a F-250. Whoops
Ended up threading 2" additional onto them. Would not recommend for X use
Replaced my rotted out shackles with 1" lift shackles
That sucked. Had forgotten how bad a job it was to perform. Ended up removing the axle from truck. Couldnt get things aligned until I went to ground zero. Will snap pics in daylight
What's the reason for: 5. Flip sway bar end links/mount
Depending on the amount of lift, the factory mount location will interfere with leafs.
I have lifted 4" from stock and now have to flip the mount.
here is a picture of my last X where I flipped it. The mount is normally bolted inside the frame rail. Just unbolt and put on bottom of frame rail. Then use like normal.
