Here's my 14 1500 Black edition RAM Runner. I am new to the forums. I know there are some questions about these and where to go to for glass or mid/long travel work. I have done a lot of research spoke to too many fab guys including some mentioned in a previous thread. I chose my custom fab guy based of seeing his work in person, one stop shop, the best machinery you can get and TiG only shop. Not here to discredit the other amazing fab guys cause there are so many to choose from.
Mods:
5% tint
Kore Glass (pain to get but worth it)
Revalved shocks and custom springs until mid travel is completed
Prototype Exhaust. Getting rerouted through the bedside next week
Full leather interior by SS Motorsports in Simi Valley Ca
All body work and install by SS Motorsports in Simi Valley CA
Custom fabbed front and rear bumpers by Race Crafters in Simi Valley CA
two 6 LED pods in the front one on each side of skid plate and two in the rear used for back up lights
Full LED interior and exterior lighting
Method MR306 Mesh wheels wrapped in AT 35Sx12.5x17
Currently engineering a mid travel kit with Race Crafters. Will post during the entire process. Also waiting to do cam/tune, Ported and polished head with upgraded valvetrain and LSD.
Truck is getting sprayed a light battleship grey with gloss black accents within the next week or two. Thanks for looking and if you have questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Believe it or not but the arms are stock. New uppers and lowers are being engineered right now. There are a few different companies that do offer uppers then there are a few companies that offer a full long travel. However nothing I have seen can be catered to my needs. Got to get what you want.

Does KORE offer any wheel well liners for their fenders? Fiberwerx don't have any, so I was wondering if KORE had some that they offered.

Whats a guy gotta do to see some updates?

His truck was on craigslist awhile ago. and since he hasn't logged in since November, safe to say he probably sold it.

Edit: Forgot I follow him on instagram, he removed the plasti-dip and sold the truck back in december.
