Suggestions for Mods

Just got this truck about 2 weeks ago so far i have done clear corners, 40 series flowmaster with 3 inch tip, and some things on the interior. This are some pictures of my truck some suggestions for some mods. I am going to do the PA 3 inch lift, and put some 15x8 ion wheels and some 32x11.50x15 on. But just looking for some more ideas. Thanks

sounds good but the 32x11.5 part. honistly 10000000000000% do 33x12.5x15 you dont notice a huge power loss from the 32's it will look so much better

Don't want to spoil the fun, but if your doing a body lift, you should have waited on the exaust. now they will be 3in to low.

But your truck looks nice. i love red.

yepper probly gonna have to do the dumper for now unless you have enough $ to redo it all. like i always try to tell members ALWAYS SAVE EXHAUST FOR LAST. it isnt that important in the beginning and depending on how you mod it, it can hurt or help you...

Typically just search here and GE for them in the classifieds.

I have never seen anybody paint that little part abover the clear corner light red. People usually buy them with white and paint them black or buy them black. I looks good.

You could get a spray in bed liner, do the headlight/corner light mod. What have you done to the interior?

Unless I am wrong..you won't be able to run the waag once you get the bodylift (without making some new brackets)....Same thing as the exhaust, you want to plan everything out, to make the best use of the $$


Looking good so far, keep it up!

Great looking truck. Think about a BAMA tuner. That might be something really cool to have.

I put 3157 instead of 3457 apc bulbs and they work fine. I have a question what kind of wheels are on the yellow edge when you first enter the site. I like those any help?

Nice looking truck! I'd start with Line-X in the bed, some Line-X coated step bars, 06 emblems, and an Undercover tonneau. I like these mods so much I've done them all LOL!
