    Well, guess I'll make one here. So I bought her about 2 months ago now and have been accumulating parts ever since. What I've done since I got it is retinted all the windows. 5% all around with 35% on the windshield, all ceramic. Had a paintless dent guy remove all the tiny little spots here and there. Swapped out the nasty door handles with some fresh black ones. Changed every single light in the thing with the absolute brightest LED's I could find. Threw a tonneau cover on. Installed the secondary air pump bypass system as well as a PowerTraxx LSD and DAP Tuner. I think that's about it for now.


    How it sit as I brought it home. Already lowered with the SOS kit, which is what I was going to do regardless so that was a bonus. Definitely needed darker tint.

    Needed some taillights to match the Alpharex's up front;

    Needed some actual tint so off the current tint came;

    Much better;

    Threw a Gator cover on her;

    Needed a remote start in this Florida heat. Currently has a basic Viper system but I have the DroneMobile module waiting to go on so it'll be controlled by a phone app;

    And one last current picture before she changes all up;

    It's currently getting head unit, speakers, amps, subs installed as well as getting the interior redone. New carpet, headliner, etc. Katzkins too if they get here in time. DD SS3 Fog lights are going in too. Then it's off next weekend for rims/tires, front and rear TRD sway bars, SOS Helper Bag kit, compressor with remote control, and BAM Exhaust. Once all that's done it'll be getting wrapped and cleaned up. Then finally it'll be off to ProSpeed, in Texas, for a supercharger with all the goodies. Can't wait.

    Have you talked to the guys at ProSpeed yet? They are only an hour from my house and I am still on the fence about sending mine down for the "works"
    I know this will take well over $10k to do also.

    Just a few quick emails back and forth but nothing too solid yet. That's a few months down the road. Focused on interior, exterior, and suspension right now. Once everything else is all buttoned up then I'll have a more serious conversation with them.

    Still need to track some parts down too to completely finish the interior.

    Thanks. I'm only a quarter of the way there so far. Next up is the wrap and some more speakers.

    Good looking truck especially in that color.

    What notch do you have the rear shackle set at for that height and any issues with driveshaft hitting ?

    It's the SOS 2/4 kit. Haven't had any issues but I haven't had it very long either.

    Won't be that color much longer.

    Currently in the middle of making a custom phone mount out of the worthless coin holder.

    Interior is moving along. Still quite a bit of work to do in here though.

    What is the Mike's "ByeNanny" listed in your signature? Sounds interesting.

    How much of a difference did the sound deadening make and how much material did you use? I have a regular cab as well and would love to hear how it worked out for you.

    I really can't say. I went from a bone stock truck to basically deadening, a full audio system, exhaust, new rims and tires, etc all at once. I'm sure it helped but being that so much was done at once I really can't gauge it.

    LOL Yeah I love my Atoto Pro Android HU. Been looking at the Joying 11in unit as a replacement for a larger screen.



    Its a module that bypasses the factory traction control automatically on startup. I could never get this done manually and always had one form of TC slowing me down although I thought they were all off. This took care of it and does it every time, one of my fav mods.

    I've got the Phoenix branded Tesla style unit on the way. Had an Android head unit in my previous vehicle and loved it. Not sure why I swayed and went with a Pioneer. Definitely a bad move.
