I have no need for coilovers over here And I'm actually thinking of selling the winch for 700$ with the mounting hardware and front hitch, so that I can get myself some 33" tires and a BL. But might do that after winter just in case something happens and I nee the winch

Nice would look sick on 33s and BL. When i do the coilovers im getting larger leaf springs, then saving up to bump up to 35s.

Got bored yesterday and decided to make myself a cheapo toolbox for the back of my truck. Plywood with 2x4's to reinforce it. Turned out purty good if you ask me. Just need to find a way to lock it until I fork out 400$ for a diamond plate one.

Haha I mesured mine out so that the milk crate would fit, makes the straps stay together a bit more.
