lol, well today I’ve hit the 54 year old mark. Considering I never thought I would make it past 21, I’m always feeling Blessed as each year after has occurred.

Of course I now really need that BDS lift so I can get this Ram it’s first birthday gift lol.ad1f6f92710f92eef3eba10915904ef5.jpg

Ok I’ve been “ advised “ not to do the led clearance lights. So with that being the case a few things are happening. One my oem Mopar 2” lift is being redone. Meaning they are ( dealership ) doing the TSB for the front and using spacers (?) to make sure it’s now leveled. I still have the brake groan and supposedly the parts are on order for that. Also this weekend I’ll be taking the new tires, wheels, and tpms and having that all assembled. My new tail lights should be here in two weeks, and my front end project should be here by next week. 700321037ec1e30f6d3bdfc6f992172e.jpg35c9a6259df36740b7cdbd01bec12ee1.jpgf346b6c3c16ef4d2d5e60c3892eb9055.jpg

Wow my accountant hit me up with how much I’ve spent on parts for this thing already. He joked I could have purchased a second car for that dollar amount. I joked back maybe I’m paying him too much lol.

Heard my exhaust combo for the first time outside of my truck today. Wife took the truck to her office and I have to say I was truly impressed. Not too loud, but sounds like a Hemi should. Very quiet on the inside yet mean ( mannered ) exterior wise. I can truly say that I am happy and now I can make an actual F/S listing for my nib Magnaflow catback system.3b52e3675387ab1a232621a06ae6f953.jpg

I’ll see what my truck looks like after this Mopar 2” lift front part is added. If it doesn’t give me what I want, then I’ll just wait for the B.D.S 4” lift to surface.

Just got my truck back from having that front spacer added to my Mopar lift, plus the break squeal addressed again.8c695642a5f11661b29b052f5cafdf98.jpg

Well having that spacer added to the front did a good job as far as leveling my Mopar lift. Have to say the ride in the front is a little firmer then before. I only have 35 miles on it since installed so I’ll see what riding longer will do to it.

I’ll be putting my current wheels / tires up for sale. Looking to get away from all black wheels and may actually go with oem powdercoated Billet silver to match my truck.fb27656c57e373fdc5804a3a71aadb8e.jpg

In the meantime to keep myself amused, blackout tail lights added to the mix.ef36fb0a0a0adfa4b84fbfce89174f9a.jpg

Sadly my front end project did not turn out to my liking. So back to square one and more brainstorming lol.
