i've been wanting to lift my truck for a while, i finally found some mickey thompson classic II and 32x11.50 BGF all terrains for a good deal. picked them up, and a 3" body lift.
went to do the lift a few weeks ago, my girlfriends honda broke down (shocker) so i had to fix it instead. went to install the lift the next weekend, found that my radiator had a leak where the tanks meet the core
finally, got it done last weekend. i need to put in some gap guards, the front valence, and paint the remaining trim. but i've been too busy with work and the weather lately has been pretty wet.
first, i wanted to color match the scuff guard on the doors, i felt like the grey was breaking up the truck too much. taped it off, scuffed the surface and painted it. came out great in my opinion.
next id like to paint the trim on the wheel wells, front and rear bumpers, and lower front valance flat black.

about to start on the lift
i still haven't cranked the torsion bars, i'm not sure if i will. i haven't had any clearance issues at all.
before long I'd like to get gears, intake, and exhaust and camper shell. but i've got some other stuff to take care of first
