Nice! They look sick! Are they the 2.0 or 2.5's?

2.5s. 2.0s wouldn't make a noticeable difference

Hey man,

Love the build and the functional mods you've done to it so far.
Im lookin to add to by BDS lift to throw 37s on mine down the road, yours looks sharp, and love to see another member that roughs their truck up too.
Got some questions for ya if ya dont mind:

How was wiring up all them accessory lights, especially them flush mounts into the stock fog light harness?

Where could I find coilovers to fit my BDS 6 inch? I saw "liftedford" and his ICONs, just seein where I could start talkin to for a set for myself.

And lastly, Did you ever get some new gears for your ole girl?

Thanks man!

Thanks man! I'm not a 100% sure if I like the look or not yet but hopefully when it's coated in line x premium and has a 37" tire hanging off of it, I'll be sold on the look.

Thanks! And the wiring was pretty easy actually, I just cut off the old fog light connector and wired them straight to it. So far no issues with it but you just have to make sure it's waterproof. For coilovers I would talk to the guys at down south Motorsports. They carry all the major brands and do custom builds all the time. Lastly I have not regeared yet but that is coming up very soon. Not because lack of power but because the 8mpg life is pretty rough lol.

Well hopefully everything looks good when it's done man! I was thinking openly about maybe getting a spare wheel and tire holder that would be a bolt on onto the tailgate when taken off, thought it would be useful for the big trail and offroading days, just take the tailgate off and put the spare holder on for that day. When you're done, you'd be able to just put the tailgate back on.
