    Yes it will. I am thinking about flat black to contrast with the glossy black of the grill and keep to my black theme.

    Yea I emptied most the oil till it was just dripping. Installed the valve then removed the filter. After removing the filter there was more oil built up behind the valve.

    Local army surplus store. I'm sure you can find it at other sporting goods stores, Amazon and other places online. Think it cost me around $10.

    If my calculations are correct, a 3" front lift and 1" rear lift with 315/70R17 Duratracs only gives me ONLY an extra added overall height of 1.84" from the leveling kit I currently have.

    I measured that I have 7.5" between top of truck and garage. Now I'm wondering if a 6" or 7" lift would fit. Hmm. I have 83" to the top of the garage door.

    Current tire diameter: 32.72
    New tire diameter: 34.4
    .84 tire height addition
    Currently 2" front coil leveling spacers
    1" front suspension height addition with 3" lift
    1" rear suspension height addition

    Well after some searching I found a thread on another forum that gave measurements with the 7" BDS lift and 37" tires. 8" height difference from what I have now. Won't fit in the garage :(. Sticking with my plan of 3" and 35s

    Agreed. I would hate if I couldn't park in the garage, plus I'm sure there are normal driving situations come up, where you want to get under a parking garage or something that you couldn't with more lift

    Did a little testing tonight

    vyhaqu8a_39cbde16aa4bf579eb773809038d2f566bdc8f7b.jpg

    The left side is 6 coats of plastidip smoke and 2 coats of plastidip glossifier.

    The right side is 3 coats of plastidip clear and 2 coats of VHT nite-shades. The clear plastidip applied first allows this to be fully reversible.

    So far to me it looks like the left side is not dark enough and the right side is too dark. We will see what it looks like in the daylight tomorrow before I decide if one of these is the route to go. Might try a coat or two of plastidip black with glossifier to see how that compares too.

    The best choice will be applied to all tail lights.
