    I don't know how the hell you did that yourself. It took two people to remove it and two people to install it when I did my swap.

    The front differential, of course. Can you even lift the rear diff?

    I have those as well, the diamond plate looks stupid, as does all diamond plate, really it isn't pimp my ride in 2004 anymore haha. But I will say they are plenty sturdy and fit well in the truck.

    We were talking about the diamond plate pattern stamped into the husky rubber floor mats. It's not necessary it's just done to look "cool".

    Got new tires and wheels. Driven over a thousand with the 5 speed. So far no problems, seems I removed the correct pins in the ecu, no check engine light. Only thing to do is get a new connector for reverse lights and decide if I want to wire up the clutch. right now it's just shorted, took a couple days to remember that I can start in gear.

    I was actually just about to buy the husky mats when I saw @alphabravo post about these and pulled the trigger on weather tech.
    They fit really well and look good. Here a few pics, sorry for the messy back seat. Got a few projects I’m working on and got stuff everywhere.

    This may sound dumb but my truck is now at 201k and I’ve had an awful squeak/grinding noise every time I turn or hit a bump.. the ball joints are new and the coils/struts have only been on a year. I’m thinking that it’s the bushings in the upper and lower control arms because I don’t believe I’ve ever gotten around to replacing them...
