I'm pretty sure I saw your truck while I was driving through St. Clair the night before last. Looks clean man, I wish my wheel wells weren't so rusted out. I took my running boards off and it's miraculously solid underneath there. Next is the tune up, and then the front main seal (which I have no idea how to accomplish).

Was it parked? I dont remember if I was in st clair, maybe just driving through. I saw your truck has a brush guard. Do you know how in the heck to get one on? I know that it should work with the oem bumper bolts/carraige bolts but I have no idea how to get then through. Making a new thread with pics soon

Given the two-tone scheme of the truck, If mine, I might have considered the hubs and rear axle splines in brown and the rims in tan to match the body colors.
Round them out with stainless trim rings (maybe the red pinstriped style found on the Wagon Wheeled Lariats)
to match the stainless body trim, with chrome lug nuts which would fall in line with the bumpers and mirrors. Just my "Old Guy" 2 cents.

Yeah I couldn't tell you how it's mounted/how to get one on, I'm pretty sure the brush guard on my truck came stock with it.
