Default Let the build begin ....

So I ordered an Edelbrock E-Force supercharger today ! Excited to get it installed ... hoping to start working on it this weekend . I do not have a heated garage so I have a local mechanic that I trust and he will probably install it for me .


Also order 20 inch Ultra wheels and a Carriage Works grill and an FX4 shell for the paint to match section . Mine is an XLT but will not look like it soon .


Planning on ordering 295 / 65 / 20 Nitto Trail Grapplers tomorrow and a 4 inch Rancho lift .


The build will probably cost 12 - 13000 but why upgrade to a newer truck when mine is low miles .


Truck should be pretty sweet . The lift probably will not be put in till spring along with rims and tires . Will be doing the charger / grill / door handle painting and have debated on the FX4 flares and getting ride of the lower gray on the truck and turning it to white completely .


Pumped ! Any ideas / suggestions are welcome .

My only suggestion is plenty of pictures! Have fun with the beast! I wanted the blower or a lift when it was time to mod. I could only afford one. Jealous!

Rancho 4 inch with 285/65/20 bf goodrichs ko's.

4 inch will net you more like 5 inches of lift.

That is what I have read ... hoping it will fit in a 7' garage door . I have read that it would but it will be very close .
