I cant wait to take them, hehe.

I did however make the mistake of ordering only 1 inch, i just measured and i think i actually need 2 inch to even out the rear.

Im trying to change the order now, i don't think it will be a problem since i just paid for them and its Sunday.

I am really looking forward to getting them in the mail.

Today i traded some euro tails i bought a while back that im not to fond of for some stock tails, kind getting over the shaded look.

And i got these in the mail 1.5 inch for the rear wheels to even them out finally! I gotta make sure to install the babies the right way.

SO here is what i did today.

got tired of the black grill, so i sanded it down and primed it.


Using Duplicolor Victory Red, i put 4 coats on, im not sure if a clear is needed yet for this paint but im going to look into it tonight while the red is curing. I will most likely paint the bowtie black next weekend.



I also re shaded my parking lights, they were looking bad.


While letting the coats dry, i put on the 1.5 spacers that i got for the rear wheels. Torqed to 95 pds on the hub and wheel installation.


Lastly, before and after.



Tomorrow, i will put the grill back together once it is dried and clean up the truck for some pics. After Easter eating of course...

Have a good sunday!
