Its been a while and I need to post some updates. First of all I bought the Malone universal canoe rack which pairs up perfectly with my adarac system.

Also painted the wheels black

Since I bought the truck my plan has been to replace the jump seat with a center console but I am a cheap SOB. OEM consoles are at least 300 on eBay so I bought an aftermarket smittybuilt that was designed for a jeep.

It took a while to remove the jump seat and mounting bracket and I had to drill a couple holes in the smittybuilt console to bolt it to the cab.

So far I really like this console. It is steel, weatherproof, and lockable. It opens up the cab and makes it feel like there is a ton more room. Plus it offers much more storage than the stock jump seat.

Nice! the center console is very practical.
I would suggest PTM the front grille borders, it would change the front ends look

I kind of like the giant black grille. I think it looks tough.

Vinyl hood stripe.


Black vinyl 4x4 decals match better than the grey ones. They also don't have the clear surround.

Spent the morning removing the stock exhaust and installing an AFE 4 inch catback.








I'm really pleased with the sound so far. Much louder and more aggressive than stock.
