Where Did You ??
WHYBYNU that is one super sweet ride you have there. I've been on the fence as to how low to drop my truck and was toying with 2 1/2 4 or a 2 1/2 5 drop and after seeing yours I'll do the 2 1/2 4 .. Where did you get your engine air cleaner and valve covers I like them too. Is that a Le Carra Mahogany single slot steering wheel in your truck? If yes, was it an easy install? I'm wanting a wheel like that in black or charcoal and on the fence to get a double or single slotted one..
