Ok so i am planning on doing the exhaust on it. Since i will have a stock muffle laying around i may gut it for a sound clip so people will have a idea of a diy exhaust set up

first, you need to go back and fix post # 23-it's 4 screens wide!

i had the spare for my '92 up on the roof after my carrier got smashed up. but i ended up cutting up the carrier, and welding up some cross braces to make the mount part of the roof rack.

it just adds a little more "bad-***" to a bad-*** look.

as for the tinting.............it's all a matter of taste. not my thing, but some trucks look good when done just right.

if you're not sure, see if you can find some back-ups from a local JY. that way you won't risk damaging your factory ones.

Nice truck! I like the two tones

Your driverside headlight is installed incorrectly, though.

Ok ill start from the top. I will try and resize the pics when i can but im on my phone right now. If i dont like the tint it will wet sand off.
Im from logan it is about 20 minutes south of Lancaster.
My drivers headlight has been wrong since i got it it is missing one of the clips. So i just have a hitch pin in it until i find a clip somewhere.

it almost looks like the lower inside peg didn't go into the horizontal slot.

they really are a bit of a bitch to get in sometimes.


especially when you have 2 HID ballasts in there as well.

The spare on the roof doesn't look right on a stock truck IMO. When they are lifted, with some off-road lights, etc., then the spare on the roof looks decent.

I assume you put it up there just for the "coolness" factor?
