My truck has the worst headlights of any automobile I've ever owned, model years 1979-2017. I don't think they could blind you even in direct view.

Please Please Please Please Please tell me you at least considered rotating the entire assembly 180 degrees, but some random person told you it was bad juju to allow the inside of the shock see the outside of the vehicle.

This is totally blowing my mind right now!

Bottom Strut Mount (one with Two Bolts) is not Flat or more correctly is not Perpendicular to the Body of the Strut. Its at an ANGLE and it will not work by just rotating the shock 180 like it does on Older models.

Then you never had a '94-'95 S-10, you may as well have used candles!

YUCK - Terrible looking....if you're one of those people with absolutely zero taste....thankfully I'm not one of those :P
edit - you know what though in all seriousness, I think I'd add the rear fender liners since its white. Other than that,...awesome

Those 6.5' bed Crew Cabs always look SOOO long to me, but then sometimes I wish I had the bigger bed for hauling.
