The first thing I did was just like anyone else and I removed the runner boards to give it more clearance.



Attachment 99037

Next I installed the "autozone special" the thrush glass pack

I don't have a whole lot of pictures from the beginning but I have some. The first major thing I did was getting rid of the donut sized tires it had on it and got some destination AT 265's. Not large by any means but it looked a hell of a lot better then the michelin that were on it from the start



Attachment 99038

Next was to Plasti dip the ole stock rims



Attachment 99039

I also installed 2 kc spots and 2 kc floods. They were off his rig from when he was a kid.

This is his (sorry it's rotated)



Attachment 99040


My next mods were to plasti dip the flares and bumpers and install my new coils to give me ~3" lift front and rear.

okay ill fast forward a couple months to where my bigger mods came in

I need new shoes so i decided to buy 285 goodyear duratracs. And i am soo pleased with them. They have amazing traction and they are pretty quiet for how big they are.

I got some pro comp 8069's to go along with the duratracs. They have 4.00" backspacing and -12.00mm offset. Theyre 16x8 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern. Along with the wheels i got 1.25" G2 wheel spacers. I knew i would need some to clear the A arms.

The next major thing i did was installing the Spectre Cold Air Intake. Its great for high end power you can really hear it pulling in the air when i get at about 3000 rpm. It helped my MPG too. On the high way i get about 23 mpg when im consistently running 62-64 mph.. It amazes me even with the 285's.

My next major mod was the 4x innovation bumper. Its probably one of my favorite upgrades. It looks so clean and just adds that aggressive look to it. I primed it and sprayed it with bed liner

Those horns are soooo cute!

Nice on the 4x Innovations, too bad they don't deal with body lifts.
