    THAT'S the spirit!

    You'll learn a lot, it helps to see what others have done to their trucks, it's one thing to see a part online, it's another to talk to someone that is using it.

    Yea, then I'll get that damn itch again and start spending money like crazy again! TW, if it don't kill you it'll make sure you have a damn nice truck!

    Lol well I could add on there to put my LED lights in the MAP, DOME and license plate. Been too lazy to do it. What would that take? 15-30 mins?? I also haven't painted my ATO skids and put them on but I don't think we'd have enough time to paint enough layers and put them on.

    Shoot, I'll go in on that...if my wife don't kill me 1st.

    Hey if you pay for the materials we can fire up the oven and powder coat your skids. I'm sure others will want to powder coat some stuff as well.

    Cool, sounds like a plan...I guess I should probably see if I can just take a day of leave instead of hoping for the time off. Leave less of a chance to get screwed. You can put me on the list.

    Yeah also i would prep the skids good before mod day. hit them with some 120 grit sand paper until clean we can get all the oils and finger prints off at mod day but they need to be sanded really well or the powder will not stick.

    I don't think that would be a good idea for mod day If we blast anything it will be in the blast cabinet. I can blast in the booth but it's messy.

    Go to Home depot and buy a orbital sander I think they have one for like 39.00 bucks and you can always take it back after because you didn't like the way it worked ;)
