Put ME behind the wheel brother!

IDK, I would want a bull bar with a skid plate and some KC lights. Do you think you could pull off a roll bar with the dirt bikes? I had one on a 04 Ranger with 4 KC's up top and 2 KC's on a brush guard up front and I loved it. Window tint would be nice too.

What size are your XD's?

What height are the tires?

I'm also thinking about some small wheel spacers to give it a meaner look.

The front def needs something. You would be surprised what rain guards and a bug deflector will do for looks.

Yeah I really like the look of a bullbar. I found a black one. Is it a good price?

I can't tell you if that is a good price or not. I have not priced any. If your truck has the front tow hooks, looks like they will have to come off.

If you get it, buy you some lights for the front. They are great for spotting deer on country roads at night if you adjust them right.

I am looking at tire and wheel packages right now. Any ideas where to get the best prices? Or did you get yours off the shelf somewhere?

I actually went to a small local dealer. Apple Hill 4x4. They hooked me up. But did you check wheels pros and tirerack.com?

Have not tried either. As of now TirePackage.com is leading the way. I would love a set of XD's wrapped with an aggressive tread. I am stepping down from the factory 18 to a 17. The big rim on your truck looks good, it's just not for me.

What I want to do is find a good online price and see if a local will match it so I get free tire rotations.

Are your windows tinted? Some pics look like they are, others I cant tell.
