    Not hard at all 10 bolts. I had a new gasket on the shelf to put in. I could of osed the old one but I had anew one handy. You will have to remove the intake tubing and air filter box which will lead to cleaning the throttle body at least that's what I did. It's right so might as well nock it out.

    I think it looks, OK. Is the bedliner just down low? It would look better if the doors were de-badged of the original badges instead of blacked out or even paint those white too to tie it all together. The flat black looks hurried with the badges still on it.

    I dipped my wheels that color on my black truck about a year ago before I peeled it off and dipped the whole truck. I really liked it. Just use some simple green and a car wash sponge to make them look fresh again.

    Not only does your truck not run, but it's getting humped by a more alpha truck.

    :(

    I have one. Actually I have 2. Didn't really care if they didn't look perfect. It was like 11 at night and my dad was trying to help me get them finished cause he had to go to work in morning and I literally had to cut the thing apart to redo it so a lot of that is slag from the plasma cutter that I didn't feel like messing with. After you have worked on a truck for 70+ days, you really don't care if it looks all smooth and nice. It does its job still.

    No I have SCS F-5 with the 3.5" bs and 255/85/16 tires. There is a pretty good Gape between the shock body and tire. With stock tires and wheels they would rub.
