I'd be happy to, I didn't keep the receipt unfortunately so I'm not sure if it was the same p/n. It was the composite bearing though. I was surprised by the thickness change and it threw me for a bit of a loop during install.
I'd try some other dealers, it is possible they changed the price...
I wouldn't ever consider trying to make your own, because if it fails, there goes ten thousand bucks. 3d printing also has terrible tolerance and strength compared to non printed parts.
Finally got the truck weighed fully outfitted how we take it on trips (all food, water, etc), just missing the mountain bikes. 30440 lbs with me in it (190lbs)
Can I reserve one of those? I'm running the 100amp and being kind to it but who knows... I thought there was a top bracket or something for the 260+ alts?
Another trip out, truck did awesome but now hearing a whistle when CTIS is checking pressure (during the pressurizing step) this happens when moving and stopped. Will have to investigate. All tires within 1psi and no error lights.
Had a bit of a steep decline and had to be a little careful...

Took it on it's first highway trip to Fort McCoy. Now with the new tires we can for further and at high speeds without worrying about old rubber. Truck did awesome, cruising at 65 was no issue. Did have some imbalance at times, seemed to come and go depending on tires getting in sync with each...
Can you cut the hucks and just slide the crossmember rearward, not removing the box?
Wonder why my m1096, that had a box on it, does have any crossmembers at all on the upper rail?
Going up a local hill I could do it at 45 with just frame rails. After adding habitat (20ft shipping container) and all the other stuff(eco hubs too) I was at about 25mph today(about 2 min at full throttle). This is a very steep hill, but still that's a big drop. Weight before was about 20k...
