    Test the alternator and connections. Could just have a bad ground/connection? @JKO1998

    Found a front diff locally for $150, might pick it up just to get 4WD back and stop peg legging everywhere.

    Rude o_O. Everyone has different taste. For example you have a brush guard and tube steps....I would never put those grandpa "mods" on my rig :thumbsup:. But if you like them more power to ya.

    True, it came that way. I would love to get a plate bumper at least, but I have a bunch of things to put on, then suspension, before anything else.

    K&N Intake. Gutted Cats. Slightly larger tires.
    I cleaned out my interior. Took things apart and wiped down the inside of the dash from the years of dust and dirt.

    I bought my truck used and well, the seatbelt showed it. Super hard to get to just go back up naturally so I lubed the guts of it and I washed the seatbelt...

    OMG that water after I washed the one seatbelt.... So gross...
