I've considered doing that, but I have changed my mind soo many times I don't even know what I am doing now I think the shop truck style would look pretty sick..Paint my wheels red, maybe paint the top of the cab white etc. What do you think?

your truck looks awsome the way it is now but at the same time black wheels would look good and the shop truck theme would look cool to!

Don't feel alone. I don't have any pictures to show, because I have only just begun working, but I already have new stock springs on the chassis, and the original control arms, etc.


Mine will be going back stock height.

My truck will be stock height for awhile. I want to be able to go off on dirt roads without worrying about dragging rocks and getting stuck in a ditch or something. We don't have dirt roads in Orange county though Just sayin what if.
