Really? You don't see the obvious choice? Ok, I'll post a pic then...

Truck looks great with the new stance. Share the specs with us.

Not referring to the turn signals. I was talking about the tail lights. One of these in each fender would look tight. Like a modern version of the 39 tear drops.

This would be perfect, the rear of that truck just flows perfect except those tails sticking out.

The bike is nice, but move it over I am trying to look at the cool truck, it sits just perfect, like an art piece, nice. Ya run some different taillights, lots to choose from, lincoln or other small less obvious ones.

Looked a bit harder at it and lots of room in that roll pan for lights sunk in to it. Would really smoth the truck up some and flow better.

Re: New Stance, New Pics, New Edition...

Yeah I`m starting to get the idea...Thx for all the compliments gentlemen...The idea about intergrating the tail lights from the bike into the truck is perfect but my only issue is the LED part of it. I did not want to put any LEDs or HIDs on my truck...question is Rollpan or fenders????

I like the stock taillights on your truck.
But if you do move them, put them in the rollpan.

Agreed. Cheaper to replace roll pan than fenders

Thx on the compliments, the drop would come out to 6/8 with front fenders pulled out, c notched in the rear.

I also like the old school look on the rear tail lights but these are a bit too bulky and they just look like they don't belong on the truck at this point.

Thank you and yeah i yanked the badges off and blacked them out I also outlined the front turn signals and front fender lights with black. It was a little stupid experiment but worked out ok.
