If youre already going to remove the bedside decals, consider the roof. Your truck is lowered so it will be seen (to some). Just not as in your face. Looks soo good.

Dang man that thing looks AWESOME!!! I normally do not like lowered trucks but damn that looks AWESOME! Way to go! Love the flag too looks sick! Got any startup videos? Reving? Really interested to hear how it sounds with the downpipe.

Yeah the bags were able to be installed. Took some extra bits n pieces to make it all work. Guess a new base plate for the bag had to be ordered & the upper bracket either is new, or he took and flipped it upside down. Also had to get new rear shocks with it as well.
The can of worms didn't have to open if I would have been fine with the rake from rear to front. But since I wanted how it is currently sitting when he brought it level with the front it caused the rear sway bar to butt up against the exhaust and also wouldn't line up with the mounting point. Then the whole new brackets since the axle wanted to sit directly on the ones that came with kit.
Work flawlessly though.

No sound videos, yet. Need to get the free time to do it and also waiting for the weather to start turning, which starts tomorrow. I should hopefully have something up for ya within the week, I hope. It has a very interesting sound with the downpipe. No droning in the cab when cruising (thank goodness). What I really need to get on is some data-logging so I can see how much power can be had from the Nano and then drive into the city (2+ hour drive) so I can get her on a dyno. I'm pretty confident in saying that I believe this truck is a mid to high 4 second 0-60 time when launched in 4x4 high.
