Let's just say...

That's exactly correct. My Reg Cabs have always felt like they have lighter tint than my Ex Cabs.

Hm at least I'm not the only one. Lol it would just seem that less windows being darker would mean less light coming in this making it darker in the cab. But I'm sure there's some sort of scientific explanation to it. Lol

Well I finally parked her today and started tearing her apart! Rough country install instructions for the leveling kit was useless. (I don't have a RC level and am not dissing their products I just used the instructions from the website) so I used the tuff country ones which were more detailed. By the time I found their website it was 11 o'clock and I have class at 730 so had to call it a night. I just need to pull the inner and outer tie rods which im replacing anyway and it should drop all the front suspension down to slide the springs back over the spacers! Started at like 7 and wasn't in a hurry by any means. I'm gonna get the drag links pulled off tomorrow morning and start putting it back together tomorrow night.

I do have a bit of an issue with the tie rods though. With the castle nuts it seems like my cotter pins have rusted so they just break off if you bend them. Does anyone have any ideas of how to go about getting them out?

The hell bent steel directions for their 2500 leveling kit were really good

I've looked at those too and have been pretty helpful! I got all the castle nuts off this morning! Now I'm just working on getting the tie rods out which are a PITA to say the least!

Ext cabs seem darker because there is more space or volume to light up.

I feel awful for the worthless post but it's dark now and I never snapped any pics! But I got it all installed today! Started Thursday night and didn't do anything Friday night because I took the lady out but woke up early this morning and knocked it out by like two this afternoon! Replaced the tie rods, drag links, and all of the above posted in the picture! Didn't spend near as much time on it as I thought on it! Now I just need an alignment really bad my wheel is basically upside down going straight and the wheel maxes out when turning to the left which makes it hard to drive! But she I going in Monday morning to get that taken care of and well go from there! Will have pics up first thing in the morning before I start to plasti dipping my wheels!

Next question, I'm going to plasti dip my wheels and other pieces this week since I am on spring break, do you guys think I should do the little center caps on my wheels and my badges on the side in blue like the trick or red to help the shock boots pop a little more??
