I’m nervous. But just how nervous should I be about this oil cap looking like this.

What did you do to them?
Grabbed some off the shelf Bed Liner. Found something that added a little abrasive material and kept to the dark grey look of new plastic. Plus didn’t have a pronounced look that bed liners can have.

It was simple enough couple hours start to finish.

You can see I only got the brackets off one side. I didn’t not want to spend the time moving the piping out of the way. Along with my girl is on the shorter side and those steps are a necessity.

The question now after these tires are done or I get impatient and trade.
Do I go up or down.

We don't have cool clay roads like you do just dirt/sand roads with small rocks that dent and chip the quarters.

It didn't come out as good as I hoped but here's my attempt. It spins so easy I banged second right away to keep it off the limiter then as soon as it got some higher wheel speed (Whatever 6,200 rpm in 2nd is) It kicked sideways and I pussyed out lol. These 420s don't have any sideway tread so once they start to slide it's over, the ATs on my Silverado are much easier to control in a dirt slide. Or it could be the G80 vs the Yukon dura grip I had in my Silverado.

My driveway is concrete/asphalt millings I drive as slow and controlled as possible to avoid rock chips, I hate gravel roads!

It's been a while since I've seen the beast, you've got to have a pic of it plowing through some snow!
It rarely snows here. The only pics I could find were from '16. It was freezing rain on top of snow. It drove great in it, didn't stop so well lol. It's snowed one really good time since then but I can't find pics.

That's about a 100 feet. The 2nd gear shift is what throws it sideways kinda like those vids of guys leaving a car show everything is fine until the 2nd gear shift then they lose it. Better to get ''out of it'' than end up going through that fence I see in the weeds.

That gives me the chills lol! No snow and cold is not fair though.

Better to get ''out of it'' than end up going through that fence I see next to the shoulder in the weeds.

Yep not worth it at all, I've got way too much into this $3,500 truck.
