    recently picked up an 04, red, extra-cab, 4 banger, that im gonna start building up, figured this would be a good way to track its transformation.
    coilovers and 5100s are already ordered and more to come..
    here she is my 04 extra cab completely stock minus rain deflectors and weathertechs

    thinking about ordering tires today
    im really thinking about goodyear duratracs or fierce attitude M/Ts, BFG A/T KO's are also a possibility depending on the price of the other
    any input on what choice you would make would be very helpful
