    Hey man I'd look into a pair of Sylvania ZXE halogen headlight bulbs for your truck. Truck looks good though! As far as lights go I'd satoshi the grille or get a light bar for the front. I think N-Fab makes one

    Avid Offroad makes the best front light bar mount IMHO

    I've already bought some good used 6" lights for $20 from a friend. Do I need to put mesh? Can I just cut and leave it open?

    You could but it wouldn't look the best IMO, look at the nFab light bar, I think its just over $200, but you could probably do a satoshi for that

    I've seen DIY satoshi done before for 40$ worth of materials. Does that sound like a good idea?

    Yeah, I don't really want to that's why I want to mount them in front of my existing grill. I was also planning on painting the smile face covers black and putting a trd emblem on them.

    Maybe I'll start a trend

    If you're going to cut your grill, it may be a good idea to buy another one to cut up and then you can take your time and not drive your truck around without a grill. Also, if you screw it up, you never took the one off the truck so you'd be fine.

    Satoshi is a pretty easy mod, just time consuming. I would highly recommend mesh as it will help protect the radiator from rocks and other road debris that might get kicked up while driving

    Thanks for the help guys.
    Sorry for being so uncooperative but after buying the truck I was almost broke so I'm trying to quit spending

    :thumbsup: understandable, I know I've been there before and it sucks to want to do stuff and not have the money. Mods will come in time.

    $730.50 to upgrade the rear... That would include chevy 63s, new hangers, new shackles, new hardware, a BAMF shock relocation, and 12" King 2.0 smoothies with resis....

    Should I do it before spending 5k on LT??

    My current rear flex is depressing...

    Edit: crap need ext brake lines too. Where would I find that?

    I wish I could run 14s... You have to go through the bed for that... Unless you do a bigger bump stop
