Looking good so far! I love what you've done with your build. What else do you have planned for this beast?

Keep up the great work! The Blacked out scheme really does look great.

Thanks for Sharing these with us. We appreciate your business!

Thanks....
Figures it is supposed to be snow,rain,sleet here tomorrow.
The roads around here were just starting to get rid of the various types of anti-skid material.
Probably be more after tomorrow if there is any sort of accumulation.

What gears do you have with those tires? I was looking at that package but the tires are an inch shorter than my stock size. Seems like a lot.

Thanks all..... sorry but taking care of girlfriends health issues lately so I have not been on the forums much.

I still have to install the pan hard bar and the rear lower control arms, then I am going to hold off on mods for a bit until my girlfriend's chemo and radiation treatments are completed.

I feel like mine revs to high with the 3.73s and 245/45 19s. Yours would be even higher than that.

Hope the olé lady starts feeling better, that chemo is tough stuff.

Thanks everyone... I will pass the wishes on to my girlfriend.
Back story.... I lost my wife to breast cancer a year ago last month. Met my girlfriend (whom I dated 30 years ago) 2 months after my wife passed. She was in a bad relationship with an abusive husband and I was mourning the loss of my wife. We have been supporting and helping each other ever since. We found my girlfriend's cancer 2 months ago, so we are still finishing the arrangements to start her treatment. This should be curable, but she is going to go through hell before she rids herself of the cancer.

I have thought about tinting the windows, just need to get the time to have it done. Probably not going to do the rear end gears and just drive it and enjoy it for now.

Crazy story. My mom is a breast cancer survivor of 20 years now. She had it twice too. Good luck with everything man!

I am glad to hear that your mother survived her breast cancer. It is an insidious disease.

New parts update.....

Procal tuner ordered. I know it is a relatively tame tune, but I like the fact that it retains some sort of factory warranty if installed by the dealer.

My GF is having more not so good days, so I think this will be the last mod until she finishes her treatments and is recovering.

Thanks again for all of the good thoughts for her
