    Nice truck! Welcome, from CA!
    What all have you done to yours? I have one just like that and all I've done so far is armor.
    Edit: I'm liking the snorkel. Was it easy? How's it working for you?

    I've done 3 and 1/2 inch suspension lift with 33 inch tires, had the tube bumpers and rock sliders custom welded by a friend of my dads, then put the D loops on the front and back. The bumpers and rock slider are welded directly to the frame. On the front bumpers my dads friend made a plate for a winch when I can get one. The snorkel I had a local off road garage put on so I don't know how easy it went for them but they did an awesome job, I just couldn't get myself to cut a hole in that fender haha. I haven't used it yet either. I have Pro Comp lights on the front bumper and back bumper for back up lights. That's really about it. It's a good little truck. Right now I need the internal parts of the front axle replaced, CV boots, one rear axle seal, and a power steering pump and it's 100 percent good. Just got a brand new clutch put in and the bell housing resealed. Great truck, I drive it everyday.

    Nice! Any problems with the lift?
    The reason I ask about the snorkel is I wonder if it'll cause the engine to heat up too much. Any problems with that?

    Right on! In that case, what brands/kits were they? I've been thinking about getting a small lift, but I haven't found anything that's worth it yet.
