WHY!!!!!!!!!!!! TN is so populated now. They’re trying to add 9.5 billion dollars to our transit budget for just Nashville. Stay where it’s pretty on the coast.

Haha I’m just messing mostly. Clarksville is nice.

Soon. Very soon. (maybe not so soon, I think my blend box is toast and ac is doing this weird thing. Pm about that and my drop(again) semt)

I'd like to see all of this with the depo tails, too. If the recons can do that well, well, ****. Maybe you can paint match your 08 like you did the show truck? And give your method on how to do them so it looks solid but still somehow transmits light through?

Paint match my 08? Its red, most tail lights are already red...

If you want to see tinted depo tails go look at my DIY thread on tinting tails using rattle cans , i used depo tails in that thread and it shows them tinted...

Any tail light can do good with tint, its all in how its applied...

I got my new fog lights in, they are a new style led fog for out 3rd gens, and while they look cool the output was pretty disappointing...

Are you still using these fog lights? Has your opinion of the performance of them changed since you installed them? I've been looking for this style fog light. They look similar to the Morimoto LED fogs, but they're not available for the 3rd gen Ram. Can I ask where you got them?

Finally had some nice weather so I could wash the truck and take pictures after the wheel spacers were installed. I pulled the wheels yesterday to check the torque on the spacers - still tight!

These are before the spacers.

The stance looks much better, the tires are still slightly inside the fender flares, which is exactly what I wanted.

I also upgraded the lug nuts to Gorilla one piece lugs. The OEMs are trash in my opinion. The chrome caps had swelled so bad I could barely get the socket over them. Plus the caps are prone to spinning around the nut, I've heard stories of stranded drivers who can't change a flat because the caps are spinning on their lugs.

If you replace lug nuts, don't bother with the OEM style, spend the extra for a solid lug. I chose black and I really like the look.
