    Here is the beginning of my originally little build ,but may end up like the rest of my vehicles in the past. I promised myself that this truck was going to stay mostly stock ,but as usual I get the bug back EVERY time I start doing "little things" here and there. I guess its in my blood?? Anyways , nothing to drool over ,but its a small start . I am testing the waters and I am sure it will blossom from here......Thanks for stopping by. Phillip:mudding::cheers:
    Pics will soon follow...

    And then it starts...I missed the roar! It took one person asking me about my street tires and if I wanted to get rid of em'. Well, online I went....searching...I kept searching and lurkin. Finally said screw it and went local. Yeah Yeah...I went to Wallyworld.
    I went with the Goodyear Authority 265/75/17. I wanted the C rated ,but they only had E.

    To add to the tire story...when the "Exsquirt Tire Changer" started on removing the beads on my original tires he decided to leave the wheel weights on 3 of the 4 wheels and drug them half way around and jacked up my factory spotless 17's. I did a quick walk around after the tires were put on and had to get gone and did not notice the damag till the next day while checking air pressure and torque. Needless to say I was NOT AT ALL HAPPY with MYSELF for taking it there . I made an abrupt run back and explained what I found in a descent manner while chewing my tongue in two. Long story short after my claim ... Alloy came out yesterday and re-finished my wheels for me. He didnt have flat black,only glossy. I chose glossy and am totally pleased with results.
    I am taking it back to Wally sunday so they can balance my tires again and wheel weights will be inside this time and the TLE manager is doing it along with me looking over his shoulder during the process...thats all for now! Thanks for stopping by!..

    Thank you ! Well, I am working with a fine person on here for some COOL AZZ. decals for her. The mount will come later including a turret
    :laser::fenforcer:
    I went with a Rough Country 3" lift. Spacers and blocks basically.
    I will eventually go a different route later, but for now it suits me fine.
    Thank yall for posting.
