It sounds like it!


Since I've been on talking to andrewdod I decided I would post my latest update. I fought through all the rain we've been getting here on the east coast by using some canopies and got my level on before football kicked off today!

I know the before and after are at different locations but I think you can still tell. I love the way it turned out and I had a blast doing it despite the rain. Took me a little longer than expected since I had to learn on the fly with some stuff but all in all the install went pretty well.

Had some delivery issues with the headlight bulbs so I got the High beams and the fogs in on Saturday but will update when I have them all installed.

The level definitely changes the look of the truck makes it look very aggressive. Just realized we aren't too far from each other.only about an hour and a half between us... this rain has been brutal. Props to you for getting out and getting it done! I certainly wasn't going out in it to mess around with the truck lol.

I've always liked the way the trucks look leveled so once I pulled the trigger on the kit I couldn't wait to get it on and the excitement got the best of me so I just went out and did it.

It feels like the rain will never stop! I was wondering how close in South jersey you live, been down that way a few times.

Not too much of an update but had the wheels aligned after work today and the Toe was way out with the level. Finally it drives nice again! If you are thinking of doing the level 1.5" would probably do it perfectly and also get an alignment ASAP you will be thankful you did.

Got the LED headlight bulbs in too.

Only bulbs that haven't been swapped yet are turn signals, still on the fence about those right now.

I’m loving your build.

where did you find those rubber mats? They’re sharp, and with those **** rings.. damn.

if I can get around to getting a set of fender badges to work with for my 18 SCREW XLT SE in Leadfoot. I might change the SE red to a green, and maybe look for some of those mats and rings in green.

blue looks amazing, too (matches my eyes).. I could go with a blue accent to the Leadfoot...

However, given the last 3 letters of my username, I’m much more partial to green than blue. However, blue works well with the first part of my username... I’m so conflicted.

i have not seen those mats or rings in any of the other builds I’ve read through... awesome touch, not expensive and adds an additional level of personalization!
