    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    Sprayed my mud flaps with some Rust-Oleum's Trim & Bumper Paint cause they were getting oxidized...didn't bother masking the 4WD off and just sprayed over them:

    I plur deh durped my badges.

    Why they put chrome badges on a silvery/gold truck is beyond me :confused:

    Contemplating powdercoating my rims for the exact same reason.

    And I put in MT-90 in my tranny, soooooo much smoother shifts. I'm a happy camper.

    next up, diffs and t-case

    I bought some 6.5" polk speakers, anyone know where I can get an adapter plate to fit the 6.75" holes in the rear?

    Or maybe a right up to make my own?

    Gave it a much needed bath after a couple days in the hills, odds are it will be dirty again by tomorrow. So hard to keep my truck clean this time of year:(

    Thinking of going back to a 32" tire after a 3 hour drive on the interstate. I now have no power and get 15mpg with my current 33" tire.

    2.7 or 3.4? With 32" tires I got between 17-18 mpg and it seemed like I had quite a bit more power.

    This is with your regular cab 4x4? I find 30 a little hard to believe. My truck is also a double cab automatic with 4.56 gears so that doesn't help with gas mileage. I think the 2.7L is only rated for 17 city and 21 highway.

    I think you're doing the math wrong. Props if that's true, but I highly doubt it...
