I thought your bumper side came all the way back on the side of the fender ?!?

Nope.. that's the way it's been.
I did cut part of the fenders before, but just straight across what hung below the bumper.

DD'ed it for the last 3 days and it feels AWESOME.

still have some stuff to address but hey, I've missed my truck. Today I greased the window tracks and locks on the passenger side, still gotta do the driver. It didn't quite do the trick to my sticky locks tho...

pics from tonight, I've gotta take a leaf out of the rear, see where that gets me...then I might have to trim the lift block down.




decided I wanted less lift than what I thought before... I'm liking the lower stance, just need to check my bumpstops

On my truck, I'm use to the doors, floor, windows, etc... rattling but hopefully in the next few years, get everything done. Just the little things now.

yeah... I'm trying to do all those little things now.
I always have my windows down, even today with the heat on full blast and driver window down. It's just what I do usually.

my list right now is
window beltline, get those little half turn things that hold the under dash cover on, fix passenger side armrest, put a toggle switch on the dome light, try to make my seatbelts retract correctly, replace my 4 channel amp. That's the interior stuff.

I actually want to get my interior to a more "home" or "comfort" feeling, but not go over board. Do want to get a rubber floor in it again but make due the floor isn't going to rust under it, noise inside is to the point you can't hear the radio without it blasting but also i want to hear the engine too. Maybe make a setup that guess in and out easily.

mall crawler mod..
5 channel alpine amp.. bought it used to replace my 4 channel, since it's a 5 I'm gonna run it a few days on my sub to and see if it's to my liking or not. Otherwise I'll put it back on 4 channel mode and put my Kicker 750.1 back in.


ordered beltline anti-rattle trim that came in today. Dang LMC had a box that size full of those dang peanuts for that package on top of the box!

fixed my offroad lights... the fuse holder broke? Idk, but it's fixed now.
fixed my front left speaker and I now have high/low headlights working correctly.

I'm getting this little stuff marked off..
next small thing is replace the OHC, the one in there now is broke and the passenger side light cover won't stay on.

Swapped OHC's.. Well I used my internals bc I knew they worked I just needed to face of it since mine was broken and wouldn't hold a lens in the right side. I bought this thing a year or so ago from someone on here and never put it on and just found it Saturday so.... Now it's on!
