    Where did you purchase these eyelids?

    Did you ever replace your side mirrors with one’s with turn signal LED?

    I tried the Lund tailgate seal. Cleaned it with alcohol before applying and it still came off. Haven't decided but may try some adhesive and stick it back on. Give us an update and let everyone know how it holds up.

    Will do :thumbsup:. From what I can tell the 3m double sided tape seems to be much stronger than the normal stuff. It came with alcohol cleaning pads and then 3m prep pads. The prep pads are kinda like PVC primer a little tacky and once the tape was stuck to it it was stuck down! Usually in my experience with the normal 3m tape you can lightly lay it down then pull it back up if not exactly right. Not with this stuff if it was just set down a lillt bit it was stuck. It will be interesting to see how well it holds up though with sliding stuff over it etc.

    For 42 bucks for the 4in strip and the side tailgate seals I thought I'd give it a shot. I will be replacing my foam with the side seals as well.

    Replaced my rear shocks today. I don’t know what brand I had (they weren’t stock, but were on the truck when I bought it.) went with Bilstien 5160s. They ride great. Can’t compare them to anything though because the ones I took off were nothing more than dead weight. I know shocks aren’t supposed to lift your truck, but I swear I gained an inch going from nothing to something. Can’t wait to redo the front end and find out how this truck was meant to handle.

    The same shit everyone else has.
    Tinkered with my brackets for my 40" light bar. I think Ive got it sorted how I want to permanently mount the bar finally.

    Replaced the wingnuts on my traction board mounts with knobs.

    Thanks! http://www.putco.com/products.cfm?action=lightingview

    I ordered the headlights from Amazon and the fogs from AutoAnything, but both should be able to be bought from either site.

    Both lights are the Putco Silver-Lux

    Headlight part # 280004

    Fog light part # 280010


    I tried them out for the first time coming home from work tonight. They're very good.
    In my opinion, not necessarily brighter than halogen bulbs (although some brighter I'm sure), they just seem to define everything you're seeing on the road more. Very white light that makes everything seem to stand out and more visible than the SilverStars ever did. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase.
    Hope this helps!
