Even with those 41's?! That is crazy! And the V8 feels so much nicer and smoother.

I hate to say this, but the chrome actually isn't terrible. Still going to line-x though.

Yea not bad at all! But it would clash once you started adding black accessories. Are the fenders being red linex a choice?

It is smoother. no more rough idling. The 3.5's were notorious for that.

I'm stuck, line-x is going to be around 1000$ for all the chrome. I'm wondering if I should just keep the chrome or get a thorparts bumper. Or even a tune and I could start with my oracles/projectors. My backup camera works perfectly now for some odd reason but i'm happy!

So I have almost 1000$ what mods are best? I know its personal preference, but I would like to hear all your opinions.

I was actually going to do my skids and the metal part between the tow hooks in red. Then I was going to do everything else black.

Dulpicolor Bedliner. They have it at Lowes/Home Depot.

Tap'd did his with it. I'm doing my interior trim with it.

$1000. You can go with a Tune and UCP or A hidden winch set up would be use useful. Just in case you swamp it again. LOL

zackcrum · Aug 18, 2014

Get the cbphoto winch mount and a winch then buy spay can liner for the grill and other misc. Parts. Leave the fenders until you can get them professionally done

Ucp and rock rails

Yea I would just spray can the chrome. Not plastidip. I personally don't like to plastidip anything just the good ole permanent stuff. Rock rails would be good, super chips or maybe the most important for you is the snorkel!!!

WillieMo · Aug 18, 2014

UCP & Rock Rails.... can't go wrong...

cgalpha08 · Aug 18, 2014

Am I allowed to be this guy?......snorkel

benlaud87 · Aug 18, 2014

If you are going to do a DIY bedliner just use a 2 part product such as monstaliner, or raptor liner. Monstaliner would be easiest since it is even recommended to be rolled on rather than sprayed. With the 2 part products the "paint" will actually cure and harden where as the other single stage products always seem to be brittle, similar to single stage paints vs 2k paint.

derian06 · Aug 18, 2014

Anyone have links for UCP and Rock Rails? Also I would like the link for 1.75" wheel spacers, if anyone has it.

I'm leaning towards Super chips and some form of protection. Maybe even a roof rack.

I do have one problem, I don't have keys to the roof rails.

Also if I were to not go with line-x for all the small parts then I would want something that looks similar. Line-x for all the small parts would be about 500 then the fenders would be another 500. Also I would have to take everything off myself.

Tomorrow i'll crank the T-bars and get an alignment. Or i'll mount my light bar up. Anyone want to buy some 1" wheel spacers? I bought them for like 120$ or something and i'd sell them for 60$ plus shipping.

I ended up getting a superchips programer, and some supplies. G2 caliper paint, plasti-dip, vht nightshade and clear coat, wipe new, and a GM4004 wiring harness for my radio. I'm about 425$ in now.

What is the name of the ones that stick out a bit almost like steps? The only ones i've seen is the rocky road outfitters and schwarttzy's but if I remember his are 600$ for one.

I think the Rocky roads are the ones that stick out.

$295 each, so $590 for the set.

Don't know how much shipping is though.

His sliders stick out as well.

derian06 · Aug 21, 2014

Some things came in today! All that is left is my superchips tuners and my G2 caliper paint. I also have motosports 1.75" wheel spacers on the way. The T-bar crank is causing my km2's to rub. And oh yeah, I cranked the T bars.

i'll try to get a better picture, this one doesn't do the difference justice.

I have it set at 24" I think I need to move it down to 23.75 or 23.5 the ride is too rough.

I'll most likely have my OEM bumpstops for sale after I put in the trail duty ones. If the ride improves.

I'm going to try to install my old radio and light bar this weekend.

I don't think it's the alpha... probably just the 3.7 with a supercharger
