    Hello All,

    Deciding to do a build list on the truck since its been through a few different revisions and still building... received lots of help on this forum especially with pics so sharing things that helped me in the past since it might help others :) feel free to ask any questions as I post the journey of how it got to its current state

    First mods were Bilstein 5100s with methods and KO2s which was ok for dailying wasn't towing the jetboat as it sold only small in bed loads which was fine on the Bilsteins

    Started enjoying the truck more so decided to add some Total Chaos UCA's, Maxtrac spindles and OEM spec kings all around had plenty fun with this setup (I think for most mild 2wd friendly trails this setup was plenty)

    Hobbies and interests changed a bit more and back to towing a boat again, needed something better than stock leafs so I went with the Dakars HD... did great towing but it was a bit rough dailying with no load on the truck

    Top is stock leafs bottom is the Dakars HD
