well, made the jump!



i know it's dirty. came right off the previous owner's trailer and into the shop to fix it's problems so i was able to get the inspection. what a blast! i still have my 97 SCab, and that's not going anywhere.

ill get some pics of both when i can get them next to each other in the driveway.

idler arm, front brakes, rear tires, and an alignment. i thought it was only going to need the rear tires & alignment, so i was a little surprised to find more problems. oh well. store closed @ 4 on sunday, my techs were finishing work until about 5:30-6, then we went to work. finally left around 8pm. but got it to the inspection station today & got my tags.

I'd put the original L grille back in. Looks too much with a billet

I bet one of the Black RBP grills without the big Star would look good on that truck.

all cleaned up & tagged. i think what im going to do is try painting the Lightning grilles black since they are chipping anyway. and painting them black wont really cost me anything right now since i have the paint. just gotta wait for a day that it isnt raining.



the DEPO lights should be here on wed
