    Thanks G, but I'm looking for the black valence that is behind the license plate holder. I believe it only comes on the ORs.

    Hi there! Glad I found this thread....

    I recently picked up a new to me 1st gen (2004 4x4 access cab). I was going to do some new tires (maybe wheels too) on it, and was thinking about just going ahead and doing a lift on it as well -- since its got all original parts on it now. maybe an OME and 5100s.. anyways, do you have any experience with the 1st gens?

    Thanks!!

    No problem, shoot me a PM and we can figure out a setup that works with your budget and goals, I have done a lot of 1st gen lifts so I can steer you in the right direction as far as what parts will work, and I live in Vista, and can install in one day, and you are welcome to wait for it.

    He does :thumbsup:

    I don't think he's been on the forum much with how much work he has and he's in the middle of moving, hence me answering for him.

    Yes I do, Switch-pros, regular switches, backlit, etc...
    Just shoot me a PM when you are ready and I will get you set up!

    That thing is ready for battle! Thanks Evan. Your rig is pretty dialed now!

    Haha, thanks Mike!! Yes that is right, been so slammed with work, moving and building, etc...I haven't been on the forum much at all and working 10+ hour days and then work on the shop and house right after!
    But it all going well, should have some heavy equipment by the end of the week cutting and grading and hope to have some concrete poured next week. I was starting to dig the holes for extending my retaining wall today but the heat was RIDICULOUS!
