Been a minute since I posted in here. Couple of things since have happened.
CB radio installed with dual whips.
Rock lights installed but not finished with wiring due to work.
Fog lights installed
Group banner installed for my off-road group
I've taken part in my local VA Veterans Day parade.
Also decided that the truck will be Bed lined. However it'll be in the silver that matches the trucks current color.
Future plans for the truck
Trailer brakes
Gears and new LSD unit (plan to purchase the LSD in the next couple weeks)
SAS I've decided that with my recent involvements with this group I've met a number of master welders. I'll be pulling a front axle off a 2000 ram to keep the proper bolt pattern and investing on a BDS long arm lift for that year so I'll keep a good ride quality.

Not sure when exactly it'll happen but I'll be turning a lot of attention to acquiring a TJ and building it for trail riding. My truck is to wide for a lot of trails here I've been told but we'll see how it goes.

Nice, I've been contemplating a LSD and was debating which one I would do..want to determine soon because I have 4.56 gears waiting to be put in.

So just got done talking to a dealer for diode dynamics cool guys btw. Set up my purchase for tomorrow morning getting RGB halos for headlights and fogs with a Bluetooth controller. Said I'll have it early next week.
My exhaust is ordered and will be here Monday so I'll have to install it next week.
Local junkyard got a 2003 in so Ima go grab the axle and start ripping it apart for powder coating. Still going with the truetrac with 4.56s and nitro cover.
Other news next weekend taking part in local xmas parade so I'll be getting lights hooked up to show off a lil bit.

They tell you the size of halos? I want to do a halos in mine and been trying figure the size so I can buy at good price, otherwise I'll cough up the $200 for them.

How much did you get yours for if you don't mind me asking?

Also what nitro cover you looking at?

 

[Lil_Ram]

$310 but got veteran discount.
Talked to Demonhemi and he said they are a special size cheap one don't fit right.
Here's a pic of the dealers truck with them on it.

Wow I like those headlights! Every aftermarket lights I find for my model have the small halo rings and I love the look like what is posted above with the big ones.

I like aftermarket lights, they just need some tweaking and modifying for me to run them, I usually change the halos, do some paint work, change the projector and add HIDs at a minimum

I did these heads and fogs on my friends truck

 

[Lil_Ram]

So went today to get the axle housing from junkyard locally and they were all gone. Not a single axle with disc brakes all had drums. So looking some more at alternatives

So couple of new things to add.
Got my new fog lights installed. Went with a set of Opt7 LED fog lights 10k deep blue. A bit darker than I was expecting. I also have my rock lights installed went with white LEDs I picked up and they are bright. I believe I may move the front ones up and over a tad to get them not shining outwards as much. I stopped and messed with my headlights a lil bit tried to adjust them to spread my light a little bit more. So I decided to take a picture with the lights all on.
My halos will be here this week and I'll install them Friday maybe along with a LED strip on the bottom that I'll tap into the turn signal.
