I think were gonna become real good friends haha. Sorry for creepin' on your threads. I saw this one and honestly didn't know it was your's. Back on topic, do you have any ideas on wheels? Nice 33's and some sweet XD's? Lights, headlights, brakelights, third? Aftermarket, that is. Protection (no homo), bull bar, replacement bumpers, brush guard? Am I doing good? Here's a picture, not that it helps, but. . .

Thanks. I assume close to 33"s or 33"s themself. Oh and Ranch Hand is a really good choice, if your talking about brush guards. I had one on my truck. I think their around $495.00.

Yeah we call them bullbars but they r the same as brush guards the only problem with ranch hands is that it is so heavy it brings the truck down but it's not a big deal what about lights I want to put lights on it and replace my head light bulbs any ideas

To every question above: First, the Ranch Hand was a little heavy maybe around 150 pounds, but I didn't notice any difference in the front. If it does bring down the front, it wouldn't matter, if your going to get a leveling kit. For lights, my favorite are PIAA's. They are more expensive then other brands, but they are amazing, and you can get them in yellow (or white). If not PIAA, KC lights are dependable and not to expensive. The headlight question I may not be able to answer. All I know is HID conversion kits are "in." If you want a nice skid plate, Pro-comp has a pretty nice one. Hint, it's on my truck. Around $100 from 4wheelparts.com. There may be others out there, or maybe a shop can make you one. Finally rims, I don't think you ever have to change your rims, unless you want to. If you don't what to spend the money, or don't what to change them then leave them. I know the stock rims on your truck and I think they are really good looking for stock. However, when the time comes that you what to look at some rims, the XD series can't be beat. They have all kinds of rims. Around $250-320 per rim. If you want cheaper rims, maybe look at the American Racing (off road series) called ATX, or Moto Metal. Sorry for the long message, hoped this help. BTW, don't do anything I have told you, because I told you, do it because you want to.
