It just happened !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Need some opinions..... will post pics shortly. Winter tires or all terrains? 2'' level or billstein 5100 2'' lift? Fender flares or no ? Volant powercore cool air intake or ?

Thanks......

p.s. anyone recommend the absolute best wipers for snow, slush, rain, foul weather...


Thank you


PUp with Wix filter
Bills at 2.1, rear bills as well, and tuftruck springs
Bosch Icon wiper blades
if mostly highway, Michelin Defender LTX M/S
If off roading or want that look KO2

DIY Cold Air intake,same results but $10, or S&B CAI if going to waste the $300 for looks

no flares unless OEM Slim flares, then only if painted to match

Well here you go. I'm not good at photos - must be an age thing. Any suggestions and ideas are all welcome. I'm keeping her for life. I own her . Not a speed freak, I
prefer economy and purpose. I hunt and fish. Will pull duck boat and cooler for game meats and birds. Fishing gear too.

Look forward to your thoughts.

God Bless

Looks great to me. Better tires when the time comes. Mud flaps if you are ok with the look.

Seat covers and floor mats for after hunting might be something to consider.

any suggestions on some tires guys? I'll keep these for summer, but winters here are pretty darn bad and messy. Any one try the " imposter wheel skins" ?

Thanks

I switched out my tries to Nitto Terra Grappler G2's. An all-terrain style tire. More mainly for towing my travel trailer because they are a XL rated tire and for winter conditions. A lot of folks here like Falken Wildpeak AT's, BFG KO3's, Toyo AT2's. All good options.

Hoping to hear from you fellas today.

Flares and flap suggestions?

Tires?

Oil and filters?

Intake?

Are these oil catch cans I hear about worth it?

Thanks.
