AAK - honestly bro, one of my favorite trucks I've seen; great job. I love it because it's not overdone, and incredibly practical. Alot of people do those mods for show, but your's actually serves a purpose. Thanks for the transformation story.

Absolutely perfect!

Your truck looks amazing. I'm normally not a huge fan of 35's on 18's, but this combo looks GREAT! Bumper looks GREAT....the whole **** package looks awesome!


AS a side note.....This line is positively hysterical :

I see you also painted your headlights (or ordered black ones). That deserves a mention (unless I missed it). Beautiful truck!

2.5". The wheels have a 5 in. BS which is a 0mm offset, if I'm not mistaken. They will rub on any turn, left or right, full lock or not. Trimming of the plastic wheel well thing was required. The corner of the fender itself was also trimmed. I'll post up some of those pictures later on.

Actually, Tylus has been one of the most influential people in the progress of the truck and my knowledge about automobiles in general. He received the brunt of the dumb questions. How do brakes work? What's a strut?

I wanted to list everyone who has helped me, but I realized the list is way too long. My PM inbox on two forums is maxed out from all of the questions I've asked.

Completely forgot the headlights, good catch! I ordered them OEM Harley headlights from Domenic at Tasca. He found a great deal on them. Something about a dealership in Alaska being overstocked.


Thank you for all of the compliments guys, I appreciate it!
