overall installing the hangers SUCKED.
i got the pass side one done in about 2 hours, and with all hand tools.
but for some reason the drivers side was just stubborn as hell, i ended up running up to the store and buying an air hammer, and even with that i had to spend about 30 mins on each rivet to pop them out. the air hammer really just chipped out chunks of the rivet until there was finally enough metal missing for them to pop out.
total time for the install was around 10-12 hours lol, but i do tend to take my time on stuff.
i really like the new look tho...now i just need to bring the front down a little bit

1. The pops, im still trying to convince him to let me sell these wheels once i get the L rims on.
2. I'm broke, and id rather try to save for getting these refinished.
ive always kinda wanted to paint the graphite colored areas of the rims black...

^thanks, i agree it does look beautiful lol.
no, the taillights werent that hard, but if you look closely at the pics you can see about a 7" crack in my passenger side tail cus i tried to pry the lense the wrong way.
(the part of the taillight thats closest to the front of the truck "slides" into a kind of groove, i didnt know that so i tried prying it straight up which cracked the lense lol
