Progress of new Shocks, Hubs, Sandblasted and Painted Calipers, & New Hawk pads.



After Color Matching the Bowtie. We Got some of that Ice Snow sh!t in Florida. That stuff needs to stay up north, They closed I-10 for almost 3 days.



Post OEM fog install



As it sits most recently doing some grilling outside the Stadium at FSU




And sometimes I try to do fun things...




Let me know what you guys think, I'm open To ideas and suggestions. However, I'm in college and funds are tight, so definitely a budget build. Happy to finally be here.

Meh, 2wd, you could go either way, would be nice seeing a lowered rclb. Different than the ones here. Looks clean! What is that thing on the fender? Add painted mirror caps to the list too

Plans sound good!

I have a Hellwig rear sway bar on mine and I'm really happy with it. I'd look into that when the time comes

That's kinda what I was thinking, havent seen too many lowered longbed NBS, if it was 4WD I would love to have sit about like yours. & Definitely on the painted mirror caps, been added to the list.
