Yeah, it seems like a really nice piece. Time will tell... Thanks!

I think all I would add is dual exhaust and seat belts. For exhaust, I would go with cherry bomb, magnaflow, or heart throb exhaust systems. All have a distinct and aggressive note. Check out seatbeltsplus.com. Get some lap belts tucked in the seat. Discreet, safe, and badass. Nice ride!

The cab isnt as solid as it appears in pics. It'll do though. Id love to have somebody metal work it and lay a satin on it... maybe down the road after i get sick of driving it the way it is.

They are firestone deluxe champions (coker). Love the pie crust!

Well I still can not send pix!!!
That pic was just a stock pic I stole off the website... If you look at it closely its not even the right crossmember for this year truck. It mounts inside the frame rails. That rack on the other hand looks like the one i got. I was told it was a t-bird rack and wouldn't need the pressure reducer when running a gm steering pump.
