Thanks everyone. I think it makes the truck look A LOT meaner and manlier...not that it didn't before :wink:

Like I said, once it gets sunnier outside I'll get some real pictures. But now....who wants to help me with a Spring over axle conversion?? Huh...any takers?! :giggle:

just one question.....did you take off the fenders or did you do them on the vehicle??

Did em on the truck. A little bit of taping off around certain things I didn't wanna clean up haha Super simple. Nice even spray across the whole thing. If certain parts don't look like they're covering correctly just keep spraying it ALL evenly. Don't focus on one spot too much more than the others. As far as clean up, I let the ugly overspray sit on there for 3 days until it stopped raining/snowing and all I had to do was literally wipe it with light pressure to get it off. I was surprised.

Looks good - like the white with black, really stands out. Was thinking about doing that to mine but not sure how it would turn out since mine is black and all. Now that I think about it...I did platidip my chrome grille and that looks good next to the black paint. And all the trim is a flat black :hmm: think I may have answered my own question...lol

BTW, where in Albi are you located?

I'm up on the west side of Albuquerque going up towards Rio Rancho. But I just bought a home I'm signing on today so I'll be a little more south from there. You been here before?

Congrats on the house!! My parents lived there for about 10yrs before ending up in FL. If I remember correctly, they lived pretty close to Sandia - out their front door your could see the mountains, out their back deck you could see Abli in the distance. I believe they may have been off of Paseo Del Norte somewhere up around there. I'd love to go back, very beautiful country.

Ur rig has a nice stance!!

Thanks man! My only issue is the back sagging a bit. I was thinking of getting an add-a-leaf, or getting some 4" lift springs back there but CJ and everyone else are telling me to go spring over axle. I'm just afraid to do it alone incase I mess something up haha I'm still waiting and hoping that a forum member will travel to Albuquerque one day and help me out with it.

I gotta say, that's one badass T you got there as well!
