I guess there's a certain way to put your truck through mud holes without damaging things?
Regardless if I can do it "right" or not, the mud stays underneath the truck for what seems like forever and takes about 25 bucks at the carwash and a few hours of my time for me to get everything off and clean the way I like it.
Going off roading doesn't mean going through mud holes ha. That would be called mudding
WARNING: I'm about to post a bazillion pictures. Okay maybe not that many, but close First go with collinite 845 and so far its the best wax I've ever used. No pictures are edited, most of them came out pretty cool. Some are just completely random too.

awesome man. always loved your truck. many folks may not like the 97-98s so much, but I think certain ones are capable of being some of the best looking 10th gens out there

That looks sooooo good man. Can't believe how good that looks. You recommended a clay bar to me a while back to get rid of some overspray and I just did a small corner of my hood bumper pad and fender and it made a huge difference. Now I'm in a detailing mood and I have a buffer I can borrow.
The other day I had to go help out a family friend/neighbor get his truck in stuck and got several scratches all the way down both sides of the truck
So I'm planning a wash, clay bar, fine cut polish, then a swirl remover polish, then a carnauba wax to finish it off. My only question is do you think I need a medium cut polish before the fine cut or do you think the fine cut will get most the scratches out? Here's the stuff I bought just don't know if a heavier cut is needed first. Thanks man. Always liked your truck so much too lol

Pictures 4 & 7 are my favorites. When I get mine repainted, same green it is now, one going to try this Collonite wax.
Those look like aftermarket headlights with the factory style reflector bowl shape, also I believe the same shape used on Harley Davidson headlights. You should be able to find some on Amazon or eBay.
I'm assuming these are the lights. They look very cool. There's so many different kinds to choose from and it's hard to pick one without seeing them on the truck first.

Thanks dude! I couldn't of put it better myself honestly. 97-98 front end trucks have lots of potential, you just have to figure out how to unlock it.

It really depends on how deep the scratches are. From what I read up on that polish, its more of a finishing polish. Which means it will remove light scratches and swirls. You may need a deeper cutting polish if the scratches are real deep. I've got a hole wealth of knowledge to help you with though, I just don't have time to type it all right now. I'll pm you tomorrow and give you some tips on the polisher. And thanks for the compliment, I try to keep the thundah looking good. haha

On a side note, what rims are you running?
Those are my favorite too. And [MENTION=102470]FordmanUGA[/MENTION], they are eagle alloy 079. Yes, I know what you're thinking, they would look great on your truck.
