Yeah, I want a new toolbox. Preferably a black dimondplate. But that was the tool box it came with when it was passed on to me so I rolled with it for now. And yeah, I definitely want new rims. Don't have that kind of money yet so im gonna go with what I got. Thought about going to the jy and pull some newer style rims for the time being

I don't know what motor you have because I'm on my iPod and can't see signatures, but I took my valence off of my 93 and it ran hot until I put it back on. It must help cool the engine. Just watch your temp.

If you lift it it will be harder to load stuff into the bed. I say lower.

Yeah, that makes sense. Its just where im at I have alot of messed up county roads and that worries me. If I lower and get it all nice, ill never wanna use it for that reason lol. I kinda want it to look 4wd, and use it for work, although its 2wd. Just been back and forth on both ideas

If your lift it 3 inches it will look like a stock 4x4.

Don't lower it if your ganna be driving on gravel or non pavement. You will get a lot of road rash.
