Welcome from another stepper, good looking truck.
disk brakes and sway bars make a lot of difference.

Re: New Member glad to be here

dropping that thing down will make a huge difference in looks. i think dropping the stepsides are a must. try to post some pics of the new wheels when they come. im in the market for some wheels and id like to see what you get.
