Ok well it has been a while since i have posted here but i figure its about time i do, the past weekend i installed a 3" BL from Performance Accesorries, then i went and ordered some 33" BFG All Terrain T/A KO's and got them put on yesterday. Washed her up (quickly, its only 1 degree C. out) and went and snapped some pics.
Some future mods i am thinking about are:
-new rear bumper(one thats not bent and get it lifted)
-Fender Flares
-Herculiner on bottom of truck, fender flares and bumpers (like 00RedRangerXLT did)
-Headlight mod
-Paint emblems black
-OHC
-CB or Police Scanner (maybe both... any units 2 in 1??)
-maybe some window tint
What do you think? any other ideas?

Thanks, When i bought the truck the previous owner towed too much on the bumper and bent it down, so when i was doing the lift i just skipped the rear bumper part

Easy to fix if you have the brackets still, or just throw a roll pan on it!
oh ya i tried to do that today but couldnt get the bumper off, i was having touble finding a socket to fit the two bolts that look like the joined by a link ( i have a huge socket kit but just couldnt seem to get them off) also that would raise the bumper but it would still be bent down a little bit

Can you unbolt the bracket from the frame? Try soaking it every day for a couple days with wd40 or something and get something with some torque to move the bolts
how many bolts actually attacth the bumper to the truck???
i got one bolt out on the drivers side from the longer bracket peice but it still seems solid... i just left it for now cause it was getting really chilly on the fingers
i have a torch too

Ya it is just a retainer it kinda makes it a pain to get lined up especially with a hitch and doing it by yourself.
If you having trouble spray the bolts down with PB blaster or another penetrating oil to help.
