Default Tow hooks are now on! And new International Harvester plate

Bout time, the tow hooks literally had an exaggerated time to air dry, the finish is excellent and the weather was beautiful today. I swear there's nothing better than working on your truck.

Well, my truck will be getting some nice upgrades into the summer, purchasing a better and higher leveling kit, a 2.5" from either Rough Country or DayStar. Tires will be a 295/70/18 Toyo M/t, might be getting some KMC XD Series 18x9 Addicts, machined finish. Truck will have an MBRP rear exit dual exhaust, AFE stage 2 intake or Volant, and either a Banks Performance tuner or Edge programmer. Should stay tuned, I know plenty of other things could happen by then but I'm gettin pumped for this build.

Well, just got my Rough Country leveling kit ordered today, 2.5 inch. And will have 295/70/18 Nitto Trail Grappler M/t tires on in about a week or so. Really stoked, going to be a great next week!

Default Leveling kit is in!

Really glad to see it came in actually before the estimated day of delivery. Went with a Rough Country 2.5" leveling kit, and actually quite impressed what was included inside.

Got my IH sticker on this morning. Loving the look of my truck right now. Scheduled to have my leveling kit installed first thing tomorrow morning. Tires will be installed just over the weekend, not sure what day yet.

Default Leveling kit installed!

Thanks to the guys over at Geneva Body Shop for doing this for dirt cheap. During the process I had to replace ball joints as well.
But here's the picture of it at the shop before driving off.

Should be getting my new tires over the weekend though! 295/70/18 Nitto Trail Grappler M/t's with my stock wheels.

Default Tires are in and installed! Looking GREAT

I actually have to thank Discount tire for giving me an insane deal on the tires I was getting. But here's the pics, couldn't stop smiling, love the way my truck looks now.
