    Paid the truck off this past month so it looks like there are gonna be a little extra $$ for some more mods. Thinking about adding a light bar inside the lower grill, or maybe some frame sliders next!

    Added 2 6" Led bars to the back of my bed rack for reverse/anytime lights. Think they turned out pretty well!



    Bed Rack lights.

    No clue on the exact ground to fender measurements. If i can remember, i'll try to measure it for you. Coils are Eibachs. Added about 1.6" of lift, then set my billies to .85". Weathertechs were worth every penny spent. Last SuperBowl, a pot full of BBQ sausage links spilled completely over in my floor board. A very small amount splashed up on the carpet, which i was able to get out, but i dumped almost every single bit of the rest of it out of my floor liners. That one spill probably saved more from the carpet than the $ i had to fork over for the liners.

    Weathertech should send me a percentage of their sell for marketing lol. Honestly though, at first i doubted spending that much money on "Floor Mats". But i've had them for years now and standing water/snow, mud, and mostly of all the BBQ spill, makes me glad i bit the bullet and made the purchase. I just knew my carpet was ruined when that happened.

    Are you still liking your front suspension set up? I am looking at changing things up on mine. I currently just have the 5100's set at 1.75", but want more lift up front. So if I am understanding this correctly, if I add the Eibachs with the 5100's at .85" I will get roughly 2.5" lift up front?

    Yeah, i still like it. Correct. You get about 1.5" out of the Eibachs.

    Great looking truck & build! How has the plasti dipped bumper held up over the years? Thinking of doing mine. I'm impressed by your MPG gain w/ the exhaust & intake, very nice. The magnaflow is on my wish list, but not the intake. You got me thinking now.

    Thanks! Held up great. I just touched it back up last year from a couple spots on the dead bottom where it has rubbed on the ground. Just hit it 4 or 5 times with the can to build it back up after i peeled around the spot a little and looks just as good. I've even hit it a time or two with some gloss to put a little shine back into it.

    That's awesome, thanks for answering. I'm definitely going to do my bumper now (when warmer spring weather finally comes to Western PA)

    No Prob. For sure wait till about 75 degree weather before you do it. Take your time, let it dry before hitting another coat on it, and do it correctly. Should hold up just fine.

    Did you have to get longer wheel studs when you got your fuels? I just got the same wheels and when test mounting them my lug nuts only went about half way through the lug nut.

    I had to buy new lug nuts for the studs. Had a friend that works for a tire shop hook me up with all of them.

    Changed the front diff and transfer case oil this weekend at 100k miles. The front was dirty, back wasn't too bad. Very easy to change with the right tools
