    Very Successful weekend I'd say, Painted the bumper and de-badge can really change the truck!

    truck needs some lift, wheels, and tires at least to really pull off that bumper. Looks out of place on a mostly stock truck IMO

    Well I'm most definitely not rich! Just very crafty and do all my own mods and like to work hard to buy a few nice things rather than have a bunch of random little stuff. I pretty much put all my extra money into tools and my truck. I should start saving instead. :eek:
    I agree though, definitely a work in progress. Whats the future hold for the truck OP?

    It is my friends Dads winch that never gets used. haha a 6000lb. but with the help of a snatch block it should work good enough. Sliders, Rear bumper both from Trail-Gear, KM2's o black steel rims, CB gets mounted this weekend with the help of a firestik, Allpro expedition leaf pack with billys, haven't yet decided on the front, either OME coils and struts or a set of billys on Eibach coils, diffdrop, tool box, spare tire relocation to the bed. and maybe a soft top over the bed. Not a bed cover, I hate those. we will have to see what happens after all that:D

    Yeah I agree with Eric you need a lift and the Winch being exposed like that kinda kills your approach angles. But it looks good it will just look better with a lift and tires :D

    Definitely, for now though its got 1.5inch spacers on the strut and AAL with a taller shackle. Well, I wouldn't drive around like that, you have the winch in your box until you need to break it out and hook it up. But I can see it being an issue when a ledge is right in front of your bumper, with no room to reverse..soon it will be mounted in the bumper.
