    Can't wait to see your LT go on! Which Lux rock lights did you order? did you get THE MAX? or everything separate. Thinking of ordering some!

    Well Betsy is back on all 4's and drove her to work today!

    Still to do:
    - Alignment & Rebalance Tires
    - Weld Limit Straps
    - Attach Resi's with more than zip ties on the front

    Excuse the cell phone pics... Will get some proper ones this weekend. #Poser Driveway shots for now...

    No glass for me. Keeping it skinny. In the future if I ever entertain the ideas of running 37's then I will.

    I might've missed the post if there was one, but do you still have the first Allpro bumper laying around by chance? If so I would gladly purchase it from you. Nice truck by the way.
