    No I don't have a winch and don't think I will ever get one. And yea the driving lights are only to be used offroading. They are basically your high beams that are twice as bright and reach a bit farther

    I have the KC 130watts i love to run them on back roads around here. KC gives you a cool harness to wire them to come on when your highbeams are on if your switch is on makes it doable. Still illegal i bet but doable:cool:

    Changed the oil in my truck and replaced the rotor and anti-rattle clips on my father-in-law's Ford F-150. Man, talk about rusted up!

    A little trimming has been done thanks to n0rth. Still a lot more trimming to be done, but It drives nice with the 5.29's.

    Thank you.

    Yeah, I'm probably going to end up tubbing it eventually. I'm hopefully getting new coilovers for the front soon. It sits about 2 inches lower than it used to.

    Taught myself how to use the oxy acetylene torch and cut out some scab plates for the sliders. They look like giant ball sacks but they'll work :laugh:

    looking to lift the rear of my truck... have bilsteins on the front already but PO used airbags to level it out...too firm of a ride.
    which will give me the best results....? AAL or OME rear springs?
    also, how much will each option give me?

    Come on TW don't let me down

    I just took my procomp AAL and blocks off today. Also had some shackles that were 2" over stock. Put some OME dakars and OME shackles, truck rides a million times better. Do it right the first time.
