Tad bit of touch up paint and it's like nothing ever happened lol. Next time they have a red truck in the junk yard I'll have to buy a new fender because that dent has annoyed me since I bought the truck.

drying my headlights...again.

Also, my truck sounds like it has a wind chime hanging in the bed. Anyone ever have this issue? I also get a slight "knock" usually when I go from reverse to forward, or vise versa. I haven't found any loose U-joints or anything like that. The only thing I have seen is that the exhaust is too close to the passenger shock and it rubs.

I am going to take it to the exhaust shop tomorrow and have them move the tailpipe section about an inch.

As far as the knock, get under your truck and see if you can move your drive shaft. Your rear end may be going out.

Towed a buddy's trailer for him. 34' and weighed in at just over 11,000. Dropped my rear about 6.5".

I did, everything looks good

I am going to drop the shaft and check the slip joint. It sounds like more a metallic clunk though... Hard to explain.

I put in my Rockford components. These trucks should have come with tweeters.

Also I hit a buzzard on the way back from my cwp class.

Nice tweets! Look good there.
