I'm not sure how my truck got this way, but I know it cost way too much... I strongly urge anyone who is about to look at this thread to hide your wallets first. You'll thank me later.

About time you made a thread. Love this truck and I want those projector headlights

[Abeachbum1520]

TOTM right there ^.. (but you do need some 33's)

Btw you said you installed the spindles, but what are the upper arms? And are you at 6" or 8" now?

[x_mods]

justin: Thanks! I love my lights too, very proud of them

Abeachbum: I'm honored! I need to get some better pictures, once I get 33's, my 31's look a little sad..
I have PRG UCAs that I painted orange when I took them off to clean a while back. The truck sits at about 6.5" right now and I can't go any higher if I want to fit in the garage. I am going to lower the roof lights for the 33's and if I can get them low enough I'll add a 1" body lift!

[x_mods]

Okay, I just finished my last essay of the year!! So one last picture before I hit the hey.


After my last final on Wednesday, me and my sister are hit'n the beach then I'm all over these new FX-R projectors. They should be a good improvement over the Morimotos.

[FrontierNation3]

It's looking great man! Throw some 18's and 33in. tires on it, and you've got my vote for TOTM right there!

[x_mods]

Hey FrontierNation,

Thanks! I your truck is look'n good too! We have the same head unit!

I want some 17's for the 33's.. If I can sell my A/T's, get some M/T's, and still have enough dough leftover, then I'll get some new rims. Otherwise I'm painting the PRO-4X wheels black and mounting the mudders on them!

[sexy6chick]

Definitely get yourself some 33's, that will really complete the look. You've done a good job. The very first picture you posted in this thread is sick..what camera was that, looks really wide angle..almost fish eye because of the curves.

Thanks! It was a fisheye, a Rokinon 8mm mounted on my Canon 50D, and I was only about 2 feet away from the truck at the time. I had just gotten cleaned up to go to a Christmas party so I could use the good camera I love the lens, it's so much fun! 170 deg. view angle!

Hopefully I'll get the tires before the years up.
