Im not normally a fan of subs but that looks like a clean setup.

 

Starting to peel on its own

 

Well still haven't got trim off but I did do this over the weekend

 

Not sure how healthy goo gone is on the clear coat. Use 3m bug and tar remover. It is meant for cars and safe on clear coats. Your truck being older means the clear coat is deteriorated and unstable. So test it somewhere first. But 3m bug and tar remover is the poop. Works very fast. I've even used it many times to remove transfer paint from fender benders. Then buff afterward.

PTM handle looks good. Pretty good match. Maybe another coat of clear and a quick buff.

 

Thanks for the info, was thinking bout the buffing so thanks

 

First off, the system looks cclleeaann, just tuck the wires a little more.

And for the adhesive on the molding, first use a blow dryer to heat it up before removal, then for the remaining adhesive, I would use an adhesive remover I picked up from NAPA. Wash the truck after use just to be safe, and more than likely you will need to budd out the areas where the molding was since Im sure there will be color difference.

Keep us posted, looking good!

Well it was time for some new shocks and man they ride very nice. But when I was changing them I noticed my sway end links were snapped so had to change those. And this weekend I put a Herculiner bed liner in.



Only had it for three days and the liners already been used and gotten dirty.

 

How difficult were the swaybar endlinks to replace? Did you have to use a jack or did you do the work with the truck on the ground? Thinking of swapping mine with a polyurethane set..

 

Very easy just used a socket and a wrench and no didn't have to jack it up

 

Sweet box you got there. I used to have 2 12's in mine but I had the shallow mounts and I hated that I couldn't move my seats back further and I couldn't store anything back there. Do those deep 12's not push your seats too far forward?

 

Just one notch but i can lean back to help since i'm 6'6"

 

I noticed the jack-haul you got in your box there, I've been thinking about using one because one them girls can get you outta just about any sticky situation. But the problem i found was there was no were on the truck that i could really put it on? Do you got a sweet spot you know of or have you just modified it to work?

 

trailer hitch for the rear and tow hooks for the front is where i use mine

 

you got the good updated sway bar end links. These ones are WAY better than the plastic looking ones and will not break as easily.

 

I use the grille guard on the front and the trailer hitch on the rear. Gonna get the attachment that hooks on to the wheels.

I got the energy suspension brand even though auto zone tried really hard to get me to duralast. They seem alot stronger than the ones that were on there factory.
