After he heard my hesitation in not wanting to buy it because it wasn't stock, he said you know what man if you want to take that risk I'll just mail it to you if you pay for shipping. I obviously agreed and got it a week later. Just plugged it in today, and what do you know, it was on stock!! Couldn't have worked out better. Great blessing.
Thats what's up!

Forgot to add this the other day. I took the truck out to the track just to see what it did on the quarter mile and I was surprised with a 16.9 at 82 mph. Mind you I'm turning 35s on a level with 3.73s.

So I decided to hard wire my radar detector, all went well. Next up was to use actual paint on my shifter handle and that went great. My doors were open up front for about 5 hours, went to start it and put it into the garage, and nothing but clicking, jumped it and it started right up. Time for a new battery, the old one is a valuecraft (whatever the hell that is) that is 4 years old.

Lol. Never trust a battery that has "value" anywhere on it! How about some pics of your painted shifter....I hate the chrome and overall cheap look of the center shifter on these trucks. Hell it even feels cheap, is there a mod for the cheap feel? Lol
