Push Bar and Lights on..Running boards off (pic)

Well over the weekend i got my piece of crap running boards off....that was a horrible process..I had to wear saftey goggles and a face mask so i didnt get rust in my eyes or mouth\nose...well those were well torn off to say the least and im VERY happy in how the truck looks now. I guess i need front mud flaps now


Push bar wasnt too hard to put on just had to find the stupid bolts for the skid plate...lights were easy as expected except...the wiring is a bitch and they arent wiried up to he battery or a swtich yet untill i get find a grommet to put a nother hole in the firewall

Looks much better, my boards came off a few weeks ago too, I wish I had done that years ago.

Let us know where you dicide to put the new hole through the firewall for your lights. I could never find a good spot.

It does look much better without the running boards

What I did was got some mudflaps from advance autoparts with the 4x4 logo on them. It does look so much better without the running boards, it also looks like it's been lifted a little bit too.
