So badass. Glad she went to a good home. What'd you end up doing with the hood, though?!

I fudged up when out playing one day, forgot to latch the front after checking something in the engine compartment and the wind caught it. Ripped out all the rear mounts and put a nice dent in the roof. As much as I liked the looks of the drop center it never really fit properly and took forever to take off by myself. Decided to go back to stock for ease of access and the body lines match up perfectly with the stock hood.

Small stuff, but still progress.
1.)Swapped the adjustable column for a solid one.
2.) Replaced the instrument cluster for one with a tip meter and tachometer and reset the odometer to reflect the new motors mileage.
3.) Redid the spare tire restraints.
4.) Installed the new trans pan and manual locking hubs.

I think the stock hood looks better on these then the drop center one. I love this truck and enjoy watching the progress!

Mounted my jack and fire extinguisher.
Replaced the old halogen dust light with a Baja Designs amber SII and the rear flood light with a Vision X Duralux.
Big updates in the sound department, Pioneer head unit, amp and sub and Infinity Kappa door speakers.

Had to try out the new lights. Thinking a 50" roof mount is gonna get added to the list. Big thanks to Nubreed71 for the amber lens for my rear BD SII.

All your pics are bad ass! Looks like a very good time. I'm digging how that white truck turned out as well.

Thanks, Dustin started me off with a good foundation. Just a little refinement was needed on my end.
Still not done though.

Guess multiple 80-90mph passes down the Barstow frontage road was too much for the stock tie rods. I'm just glad they bent and didn't snap. Time for single swing steering.
