Looks good man! Now get the back done and show us some more pics.

Is your rocker dented? The pic makes it look like it is banged up.

Looks good so far. Do you have stops on it yet? I assume your fender liners out? That sits really low if they aren't out.

Are those lights behind your grille? Looks like a Midnight Moose headlight conversion kit too.

Looks awesome, man! Did you use ART's Cool-Ride kit or what? You'll be very happy once the back is finished.

not bad.. How much is the rear? How hard is it to install? I lowered my truck my self.. but I know there is much more involved in bagging it.

Most guys use a parallel 4-link setup on these trucks. I used one from ART and it cost $799.



I did not install the rear setup because I'm not an experienced welder. The kit comes w/ thorough directions and the installation is fairly simple. Nothing that couldn't be done on a weekend.....
