Sorry Marie, but I like his Grabber Orange better ONLY BECAUSE of the grille.

When you get new tires and wheels, there may be some other things I like better about it, Dallis. It looks pretty good.

I used the PA kit, everything was great, went smooth. Could someone go and tell me how many bolts you have holding your box on? like a truck thats a 2004 or something? cause they only gave me 6 bolts and blocks for the back....and i have 8.....new for 09?

The only thing that didnt fit perfect was the rear bumper , gave me trouble but got it worked out.

and thanks everyone, hang with me i dont make millions

As far as I know they upped the amount of bolts in the bed for '09, don't know why though.


Truck looks great, can't wait to see the new wheels and tires on there.

Hot truck. Hot truck covered in Grab-Her Orange. Hot truck has a manual/standard shift. Hot truck is lifted. Hot truck is piloted by a hot chick! Can't get any better.


Dallis...i think there's a member over at TRS or RPS with a bl'd grabber orange Fx4....i think he's on ontario...

'09 they went ot more bed bolts for some weird *** reason. idk why. Dallis..you can buy those 3x3" blocks off ebay for about $3 each US$, then bolts ...idk how much. EVeyone who doesn't have a long bed 07 an older, has extra blocks and bed bolts and washers.

Hate to be the one to say it, but your truck is way cooler now that you said it was an auto.
