It would be tough, for sure! I wish I could find all these deals you guys do.

-On the other hand, is probably be in trouble, lol.


CL is my friend, if you check it daily it is not time consuming. Some new AMP steps still in the box just got posted for $500. I'm pacing around the room right now trying to figure out how to break the news to my wife.

I am sure I can offer her another tattoo, but damn, she already has a **** load. The nicer my truck gets, the more colorful my wife gets.

That doesn’t necessarily sound bad... some might say she actually gets a better return on investment - hers last a lifetime!

100% pick those up! I have been looking for months for a pair cheapest I have found was $850. You could probably flip it for a $300 profit too if you hold onto them for a month.

Funny thing is, I recently realized I need to start grabbing all the deals I see, sit on the **** and resell for a profit. I had guys offering me quadruple what I paid for the bumpers right after I picked them up and they knew what I paid. Too bad I really wanted those bumpers.

Fronts done. Looks like I'm out of time to throw the rear on today.

Rear bumper is on. Oh how much better! Time to order a couple more parts to get the dual exhaust on and fill those cutouts.

looks great

Thanks JB... Gonna need to do the badges as well. Already have a gloss black 4x4, need to order the ram badge, it is due for replacement anyway since it took a whacking from a tow line that snapped.

Thanks! We ordered a bunch of those cubes off eBay last year to hook up some more gigging lights on the boat. They were $5 a pop and have been on for over a year with no issues. Easily hooked them to the hitch with exhaust clamps. It's a very easy and inexpensive mod unless you want some high end cubes on there. They work very well and I can see much better.

I spliced into the reverse lights on my tails. In hindsight, I would have spliced into the trailer plug, but wasn't even thinking about that option when I installed them.

The new bumpers are painted. Plastidip on the old bumpers was just to make sure I really liked a blacked out truck before I started spending more money! Turns out I am still not a fan of chrome on a black truck. Lol..

Well, I got me a Big Bright Red truck, LMAO, so bumpers OK. I honestly, though have turned wrenches for over 40 years (backyard), do not have the mechanical aptitude to do all that stuff. So truck stays basically stock. Gonna get some Michelin LTX's and get rid of stock tires, and a bed rug and a tonneau cover, than good. Since truk sits parked most of the time, no way to justify spending all dem bucks not have, since retired, just saying...

Added: Either gonna do pod lights or 60" light strip, get Curt T harness, plug in, and be good. LOL
