    Well I bought the truck about two years ago with some very cruddy goodyear tires, a sketchy clutch, and a rotten interior. Its come a long way since and I have very big plans for it down the road after college. I have it on the 3" bilstein 5100 lift, which I love. I opted for the add a leafs in the back because blocks scare me. I rebuilt the tranny in the garage over the summer and the engine leaks like a mofo, and i love every bit of this thing. Its on some mickey thompson 15" sidebiters and 33x12.5 bfg all terrains. Arb front bumper also installed in the garage. Im really proud of the fact that i built this whole thing in the garage I dont mean to boast but it has been a very cool experience to buy my own truck and build it over the past couple years. It has its quirks and its wear and tear but with 350,000 miles thats what you can expect. Let me know what you like about it and what should be changed! Im looking to improve always!

    Sweet truck - and kudos to doing the work yourself. Nothing more rewarding and the knowledge/confidence to handle anything the truck may throw at you
