    Thanks! I just painted them with Krylon black paint for plastic. I used the gloss/semi gloss or whatever it is.

    They look sweet! I was thinkin of painting mine in the black chrome, but after seeing how much a can costs, I think I will use what you used. I think that a black taco with black chrome emblems and the Pro-Comp Knight Khrome wheels, and the BHLM, and color keyed grill and bumper would look sexy. It might take me a few years, but I know itll be worth it.

    Thank You Monkey! That is exactly what I needed to know...And as far as regearing last week, Did you do it out of necessity or just cause you knew it would help and be better? Any reason for the 4.56's vs. the 4.88's?

    it wasn't out of necessity at all..in fact, the truck handled the 35's better then i anticipated. if my truck stayed completly on the street i prolly wouldn't have regeared. as far as why i chose 4.56's over the 4.88's..it's my DD. the 4.88's would be ideal on the trail but overall i think it would offer too low of an ratio for a DD, but thats just my opinion.
