I can't believe that I get to be the first to say that this rig is EPIC. Beautiful transformation man.

Wow! you've done a lot in 9 months. Nice rig man. Can i ask a quick question though, I have the same life and I have a creaking sound when going over speed bumps and such. Did you get extended sway bar endlnks? I think thats whats causing my noise. Anywhoo, very nice truck and I can't wait to see more pics.

Absolutely awesome build.

Just out of curiosity, where did you have rubbing on the original fenders with the 35s? Do you wheel it much? Are you able to tuck them?

I don't remember 100%, but i know there had to be some cutting and hammering down of the metal closest to the door.

I can take pictures tomorrow if you'd like?

Sorry for the late reply, it's just two amazon cubes, mounted to the sides of my trailer hitch

Great looking rig! How did you tint the tail light assembly? It looks awesome. I have the ugly pink lenses on mine, and desperately need to upgrade.

Wow... what a beautiful build. I do a lot of photography myself and those are some awesome photos of her.

I like that bumper,, looks like it allows for frame flex. :nod:

again, sorry for the late reply, but it's just VHT night shades. Make sure to mask everything off plenty. VHT is NOT like plasti dip, and will not come off easily

Beautiful rig! I want to fit some 35s under mine when these 295s where out. What part of Arkansas are you from? I'm down in Central AR, just outside of Little Rock.

How big is the holes in the pelfrybilt bumper where you have your cubes? I have an 05 and was wanting to put the blinker there instead of having them put the ugly amber one on the side. I will eventually upgrade to 06-09 headlights with the blinker in them but i just upgraded my headlights to dual projectors. Also, Is yours the black powder coat or linex? looks like powder coat but linex is $50 more but I'm not sure what it would look like.

Do you ever have any issues with visibility with the tinted windshield? it looks badass!

Was thinking of getting mine tinted at 50% but was worried about visibility in the rain and the police ticketing for it.

have you ever received a ticket for the windshield?

Amazing rig!!
