Smoke is almost done
Only thing left to do is find a leveling kit unless you have any suggestions.. Do you have a 2" or 2 1/2" to make this truck look even more kick ***.

Looks great but the chrome surround stands out just a tad to much?

I would like to find a PTM surround. The weather is getting too cold to try and paint the existing one.

Nice truck! A leveling kit would definitely finish the look.

We need more MN guys here.

Looks great. I like the Overlays the best.

Surprised I have never seen You around. I work in Fridley and drive through Shoreview a lot.

If I were you I'd have gone with a 1 1/2" leveling kit. With a 2 1/2" you're going to have to raise the rear.

Really?!?! I thought the 2004 & 2005 4x4 needed the 2.5" & the 2006+ needs 2". Guess I'll I have to look into this a little more.
