    Black grille guard with mounted kc road lights, 31x9.5x15 AT on stock rims. My future mod list: new white front bumper, Fat Bobs 2.75 spacer lift with rear AAL, american racing Flat Black Rims, 32x11.5x15 BFG A/T, satoshi grille with road lights mounted behind it, 8000k HID for all lights, 1'' Body Lift, new window tint, blacked out headlights and taillights, custom hood scoop, weather tech floor liners, LED dash cluster replacement, Front bilstein shocks, 40 series flowmaster, paint all my badges black.
    yea It's good to see alot more 2nd gen. five lugs really doing some extreme builds. Maybe since they finally came out with a double cab in our model, some company will actually consider making an affordable lift to give us more height!

    But ill for sure post some pics of it and maybe even start up a build page since i finally got the money to do some good mods....:rolleyes:

    Ah.. no worries. I got a quote yesterday to have mine painted.. and it was $300 :eek:. I can buy a new bumper (painted) for that much.

    $300 is a good price if it's done professionally. It needs to match. I don't think they sell new painted bumpers for that cheap. A bumper from a Trd or sport has fender flares so it won't look right on our trucks without flares.

    Thank you much. There's only one fat bob's lift available for our 5 luggers. But i have the same kit as the readylift's spacer and add-a-leaf kit. I actually dont know the exact specs on the wheels, I just wanted to a local discount tire (America's tire) and asked them to show me wheels that would perfectly fit my truck. They priced matched them pretty well too!

    thanks man! how you like the FB lift as far as ride quality and durability? but unfortunately, i just bought some rims and tires. (15x7 MB 72's with 235/75/15 hankook dynapros.) they stick out a little but i want some width to my truck, so im thinking about spacers only cuz im not planning to do any offroading. not yet atleast. haha. but like i said, im really diggin the look of your wheels and tires. again, nice build man!

    I really like the seats as opposed to the bench but I wish they were a little better quality. But you get what you pay for. :eek:

    Same seat belts for now. I took the middle one out. I had to make custom mounts for the seats to use the stock holes. My enduros are 15x7 I believe and unsure of the offset. Stock gears for now.
