    I've been away from Tw for a while and really haven't put much into my truck since I got it to a "stopping point" nearly two years ago when I got it. Then lately Ive been into the import car game. I bought and applied all my mods myself(no I do not want an award) I say that to say this... I've done nothing but trail this truck and its my daily. No I don't dog my truck like the other kids who were given trucks without working for them. This truck outrides, out goes and pulls every heavily modded truck/jeep my friends have. Here lately I've been looking for an edge I'm back to being interested in getting more stuff on this money pit. What are some things I could do differently to make this thing look better. Thanks. Info: 99 model 2.5 in rough country 31 10.50s(yes I know 32s will fit) and possibly looking at affront and rear plate bumper. I'm not worried bout what others think of my rig but I know its capable of looking a lot better I just don't know what anymore. Any ideas would be great.

    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.
    bumpers would be nice. Sliders should be next though IMO. Then get a rear locker possibly regear for bigger tires. maybe redo the suspension and stuff 33s on it and enjoy the crap out of it.

    ^As usual, I agree with Blackdawg. I'd get some sliders and skids first. Then you can wheel without worrying too much about your rig.


    After that, I'd go for the bumpers and locker.

    yep ^ all of above would make truck look pretty sweet. maybe a snorkel? a hilift jack mounted somewhere on there.. uhh some nice led light bars/dualies.. some people like HID headlights. It really depends how far you want to take it because there are a lot of things you could do.

    Thanks guys I know a lot of the options out there I just wanted some reassurance of which would be better and more efficient first. Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks for the help.
