    i say get the interior repainted, change the rims, and take out the hood scoop, and maybe paint the whole front bumper black and it will be looking pretty good

    Yep that's the guy, bought a few things from him. Wish he had 95-2000 dashboard parts though so i could get rid of this interior

    As for the struts, not really sure where to go on that, looked at that fabtech swap article, i guess thats an option, still pricey though... Ultimate 4x4 in Orem said mine are looking okay for now

    i live real close to ultimate 4x4 but honestly i wouldn't go there for questions and answers they just talk business and there to expensive, ive gone there for questions as well. but they make everything sound so complicated so they can do the work and charge you... I've done everything on my truck at home without there help
    of course i got to give credit to TW and ttora for the help and some friend that have shops and welders :)

    I took it there just after i bought it to just have them give it a once over, only thing they tried to sell me on was a set of rear shocks since mine are blown, said the rest of the truck is solid. I've done all the work so far on it myself, though I just tried to replace my axle seals myself and failed due to not having the right tools to get the axle apart... Ever done that? I'll probably have to take it to a shop.

    As far as the body lift and the hood "scoops" are concerned, thank you all for the suggestions with them but they are staying for now...

    oh that cool but ya i have done the axle seals my self, i actually had to replace the axle shaft because it was bend when i got the truck, you need to buy two retainers from the dealership, in order to put it back together, because you have to brake off the ones that are already on. To put the retainers back on you need to heat them up until there red hot because they expand at a high temp.

    Its pretty easy once you know what your doing
