I just bought a set of 35x12.50x17 Pro-comp extreme AT's off my buddy to run on this truck. I gotta find a set of 17in wheels now, maybe SVT Raptor wheels.

Look at this clevis mount reciever I found last weekend.



I'm not sure if I like the red clevis yet or not.

yea the motor was missing when I took that pic. The motor was at CT racing getting some goodies. I didn't remove my flares to paint then, I just masked the truck off real good.

Also, my new GF just bought me a new toolbox for my truck.



It's black and low profile made by UWS in the USA and is very well built. I am happy with it so far.

I'm thinking about trying to replace the factory muffler with a Flowmaster but keep all factory tubing for right now. I want dual's out back at 45 degree with black tips (pbly 3.5in.) some day. But for right now, I have a original 40 series Flowmaster 2.5in center in/center out that I can use if I can make it work. What do you guys think?


Also guys, I think it's about time for some shocks. I'm wanting them red or red/black. I'm thinking about KYB monomax shocks. Anybody got any other suggestions?

Nice truck!

I know a lot of guys get into the name brand mufflers and what not, but I just go to my muffler guy and ask him what he has on special. I always end up getting a glass-pack design though and it saves a bunch of money with plenty of extra HP and a great sound. FYI I just got a new muffler and fake duals with 3 1/2" chrome tips flared out at a 45 degree on each side for about $240. Labor included.
As far as shocks I would just keep an eye out for what is on clearance. I actually bought a set of Rancho shocks from Sears about a year ago and they had some military sale going on and I paid about $15 a piece, I installed them myself.

I really like your tool box. That is a freaking awesome GF youve got that will give you that. Just watch out for what she might want in return. Before you know it your holding a pretty pink little bag while she empties your checking account buying shoes. Dont say you werent warned! Haha

Well, I still haven't gotten any 17in rims to run the ProComp tires I got off my buddy a while back so I picked up another used set today. Toyo Open Country M/T 35x12.50r18's. I just can't wait to see how 35's are gonna look on this truck.

Will have pics soon
