Haha no kidding! Uhm not too long really since the rear bumper supports were rusted through and the bolts were rounded off we just cut em and pulled the bumper off. then just cleaned up what was left of the supports with the sawsall and slapped the new one on. The only issue I've had is that my tailgate is rusting also so it's bubbled in a few spots at the bottom and the tailgate won't fully open at the moment because its a pretty snug fit. I'm not excited about that. But once I get it smoothed out and taken care of I think I'll be happy with it

Finally snapped a couple fresh pics after the install of the tow mirrors. Didn't get any of the back yet because I backed I to my spot today.

I need some ideas on what to do next. Lol I'm thinking of re doing the sound system as my stock speakers are junk.

Thank you! I've thought that from the start that's just going to be the most expensive mod lol I found a guy on C list that was selling a set of 33s from a dodge truck but he had them mounted on 15 inch rims and was running them on his truck. Pretty good deal though. Can we run 15s on the 2nd gens because I've always heard that going to a smaller rim than stock is bad? Idk why that's just what I've read
