    ohhhhh!! the soft 8's are sick! theyre gonna look badass. especially with dynapros! hahaha.

    yeah, this coming paycheck is paying for tint and fog lights. haha. then hopefully headers, exhaust and TCAI within the next couple months. i thought about changing the gears on mine too. if/when you do it, let me know how it works out for you. if its worth it, i think i might do the same. :D

    Its OK, not bad by any means... Coilovers and UCA's would be ideal but I dont have $1.5k to spend on the truck...

    i figured I'd try to get some 30x9.5x15 tires at the used tire yard and try to do the spacer lift before i go to basic, and when i get back pray that i have enough for the TC UCA lift. lol

    There is enough room in the access cab for my 3 and half year old son to be in a car seat in the back and my wife still has enough room to sit up front!

    Shorty antenna.

    Power outlet in bed, should be sufficient to charge batteries for my cordless tools.

    [​IMG]

    Lockable bed storage compartment, so my ratcheting tie downs don't disappear.

    Diamond plate toolbox.

    Tried the elocker :D The truck climbed this mound without any tire spin. My 5 lug didnt even go half way and started spinning one rear wheel.
