    I like the black personally. I think you have a good look going there. Stance is awesome and those re-done wheels look excellent. Then the grill swap really pulls it all together.

    New boots! Found some of the smallest AT tires I could find that would fit the wheels I have. Might put some spacers up in here.

    Just look at the build thread
    Yep I pulled my plastic liner out a few years ago when I bought a camper shell. Bed is all scratched up rusty where it rubbed for nearly 15 years. I'm planning to repaint my truck and get a spray in liner next year.

    change the oil and fill it up with gas.... a lot.

    nothing major really. Lots of little shit along the way. I’m about due for another timing belt/water pump as preventative maintenance.

    Learned a lot about myself in addition to setting up gears. My deflection beam torque wrench that I ordered from ECGS broke while trying to set up my pinion preload. Not sure how that happened, but I’m done until I can find another.
