Though dirty, she's done already....
I got her last week and put new shoes on her. I installed the Truxx torsion bar and spacer in the rear.
Tinted the front windshield and painted the chrome grille, white.
I did remove the chrome hood latches. I liked them but was afraid it would chip the paint if someone slammed the hood.
Anyway, here is the way I bought her.
Here she is now. The pic doesn't show how much it's lifted because it's leaning but it's almost 3" higher than it was stock.
Waiting for my warn winch and I think she's done.... (for now)

Re: Though dirty, she's done already....
The painted grill looks great and you can tell its more in the air up front. The new shoes look good too im glad to see you got rid of the ones she came with!!

Re: Though dirty, she's done already....
Love it!! personally, I would have kept those rims and just gotten new tires... also, it will look cleaner if you take off the roof rails and step bars (just my $.02)
Nice truck!! nice color choice!

I was going to remove the rails, bars and rear tire holder but now that I installed the warn winch, I think it'll look wrong.

Re: Though dirty, she's done already....
Personally I like the roof rails. If your going for an off road look the rails need to stay. When you bling, then the rails can go. I love my LE side steps. You still have a step to get in but keeps a nice look. I have no lift but it makes the truck look higher. Maybe consider those steps?

Do you have any pics of your steps up close?
Thanks,

Re: Though dirty, she's done already....
Bling rims and Warn winches never were a popular combo. Sell the winch and buy some audio and video upgrades.
