~Project Predator Build

Some of you have been keeping up on my build through the other threads....
But I thought I would post here what I have done and start an official BUILD THREAD!

Mar 2012 I bought the truck:

Apr 2012 Installed Weathertech Floor Mats, 20% tinted windows & Painted Door Handles:

May 2012 I added a Flowmaster muffler welded into the stock setup (No Resonator)

In Jun 2012 I added an AutoSpring level kit (up 2") and some D. Cepek Wheels 20x9 +13 offset wrapped in GY Duratrac 285-60-20 Tires

Also added FX2 Painted Taillights

Fast Forward >> to December 2013
It all took a dramatic turn....I wanted to get more of an "Offroad Look with a little more Offroad Function"
