stumbled upon this post. great looking truck! definitely taking some notes.
I promised myself i would leave my truck alone, but from what i've seen i may have to do some none invasive modding.
I've always been a fan of the clean look and will probably be doing some lightning up this weekend ie. running boards and door molding.
Also painting the grill might not be a bad idea either.
oh well so much for just changing the oil and driving this truck till the wheels fall off.
Keep the ideas and pics coming!

Today I thought I would investigate the tick I've been hearing on the passenger side. I figured it was the manifold studs but when I took the fender liner off I found that they've already been replaced. This lead me to believe that it's got to be the collector leaking. I was able to turn the bottom bolt a turn or so and the top one turned a few times. I buttoned everything back up and the tick was still there. I drove the truck a few miles and from what I can tell, it got much quieter. I think I'm on the right track here and will try to tighten those collector bolts a bit more. Here are the aftermarket bolts, they've got allen heads on them.
