A Couple Minor Mods

This past week I put in a DeeZee truck chest for the back of my Scab. The box is from Tractor Supply and went for about $180.
Right now its held in by 4 bolts, but will soon be replaced with quick release pins (that can only be removed when the chest is open).
The decals in the chest are from ProComp and Sullivans, the 4x4 shop who did the install for me.
Of couse the H2 sticker is my favorite and hopefully will be shown to H2s on trails when I have to get tow straps to pull them out of danger. (Before anyone says anything, note it says H2 not Hummer! since H1s rock and H2s aka Tahoes, well....blow)

This last shot is of the new graphics I put on the side of the truck below the "4x4". They are in Red vinyl and are identical to the stock quality and lettering. I got them in red since thats the theme of the lift. It looks good with all the other details on the truck and kinda ties it all together. The Red letters have a offwhite/grey base so there is a slight outline of the lettering which ties into the stock 4x4. Now I even have the ford dealer asking me if this was a special edition. LOL The ebay guy is pretty hard to miss, if you type in "Offroad" his name pops up everywhere in Ebay Auto. I dont know his ebay name but his name is Ryan Shmidt. Great guy, and cab make any graphics for your truck. This set was $10 and he gave me 4 of them.




What do you all think?

Good stuff, Eddy. You've got a great truck and you keep making it better all of the time.
The red "Off Road" graphics is a really nice touch.

Love the chest, hate the sticker. After all, it's a flippin' sticker on a 30k truck. A $0.50 sticker on a 30k truck... I don't get it. Sorry. Hot truck otherwise!

that looks great Eddy, are those bolts through the bottom of the chest or the back of it? That is exactly what I have planned for mine after the old bank account recovers from the line-x this weekend. Damn you, everytime you add something I get more and more jealous! I like the sticker, if any truck derserves the off road sticker its yours.

Thanks, the chest is bolted through the floor of the bed.
Yeah I happen to like the "sticker" I think it adds character to the truck. I dont want to remove the badging from the truck because I thinks it adds detail to the side. And more importantly, I think it looks great.
Fatman, I shouldnt have bought the chest either, I am never going to pay that debt off. lol But when I do, expect tuner, exhaust and intake!

Good call on the color combo sets really well with the black. Been looking into redesigned one for my truck also. Have the company that did graphics putting something together. Red and black is sharp Eddy. Wife's going to put me in mod's anonoymous ( spelling ck )
