    Rear brakes cleaned and dialed in. Also installed RAS helper Springs and Timbren Bump Stops. Anxious to see how this helps when I'm towing.67509117096__7BC57A59-EADF-40D5-ADE2-4C06DE1D9D6C (1).HEIC.jpg

    Ordered airbags for the rear. Think I just gotta drill 3 or 4 holes in the frame rails but they will definitely be better than the hellwig add a leafs that I still have sitting new in my garage.

    Got the Addicted Offroad bumper welded and mounted. Still just primer - the whole truck’s going in for paint in about three weeks. For now, you have to look past the Truck-of-Many-Colors look, but I’m happy with how things are coming along.

    Ordered a 2000-2002 upper bumper filler to try out my Ivan Stewart grill! Been going back and forth about using the grill because Im not sure how it will look with a resin bumper. A ebay filler is only $50 so I thought Ill try and I could either convert to a 2002 style front or just sell the grill if I dont. Hopefully I like it because its a really cool grill! Piece comes on friday.

    i really need to fix the height on my coilovers also. one sides higher but i might raise both alittle. also need to order a add-a-leaf. And my brakes are squeaking. And install the plugs I bought 5 months ago. And change oil. and change diff. Yikes I actually have alot to do

    Looks better in black, the thick bezel jumps out on white paint.

    Man, I appreciate it. It’s taken a while, but everything is starting to pull together. It goes in for paint mid-June, and then the Methods and 33s go on and hopefully I’ll be done with the big mods.

    Seems the same with blue. Not a lot of colors can get away with it.

    Yours has actually grown on me in white, fwiw.

    like a wide mouth bass? Or a whiskered catfish? lol.

    My goal is the ugliest white truck possible I guess.

    Been away a while so I scrolled through 40pgs in the hopes of seeing those 35’s on Casper’s truck…

    I feel like I missed out but something to do next time. Dudes went 40 miles E of Red Rock and found geo-rocks. I guess that's a thing.

    Those bumpers do look sick! One thing I’d recommend is spacing down the bumper a tad after paint. When the truck flexes, the frame does as well and the bumper wings will be shoved up into the fender. I found 1/2” is plenty of a gap.

    To my disappointment, I didn’t find them. Saw your lower control arms on the ground about 20pgs back but no 35’s

    So true. Look at my avatar and the rt side is in contact with the bumper. It's 1/2" gap normally. Frame flex is more than one might realize.

    You know it. Holding off until the paint’s done just so I don’t have another box staring at me in the garage.
