    I bought this truck from a company and when I say there was mud everywhere, I mean all over. It wasn't in the best shape but was running so I thought I would give it a shot....
    They told me it needed a bunch of work to the front end. I went get it and after two new lower ball joints it was upright again. Started with front fenders bc the original was dented just enough to mess with the door and I wanted to try to get it fixed up. Replaced the tailgate as well.

    Inside was a freakin mess, had to beat mud loose to be able to clean it out. After I cleaned it up a little I decide to paint the rims.

    Then came the paint... I used GC Military paint and a regular spray gun. It's not perfect by far but will definitely work.

    So after the paint came some bushwacker flares, a new front windshield, new carpet, and finally some tint..

    Also ordered some pro comp 16x8 wheels with 3.75 offset. It'll take 4-6 weeks for them. Then going with 33" tires. Also have Wet Okele seat covers in route, black sides with Camo.

    Looking forward to getting it done...
