Default NBG's 98 Build

I'll get some pics up here soon.

Just ordered a set of 4 Rancho RS9000XL's today from auto accessories garage online. They had a 10% off, free shipping and Rancho is giving a $100 prepaid visa card also. 4 shocks for $246 bucks.

After looking at 420blazin's rig I'm just going to put duratrac 235's back on mine. I'll do a add a leaf in the near future also and maybe a T-Bar Crank.

I have 2 new mirror's that just came, engine reservoir cap, brake pedal pad, Curt safari rack w/extension.

I've got new brakes and rotors coming tomorrow and some plasti dip for the rims (black)

I bedliner sprayed the front bumper and grill/badge black. I like it I also bedlinered the roof racks and the roof area around the roof rack.

I added 2 back up lights to the bumper a few days ago also.

Like I said I'll add pics soon. This is my last week of Spring Bear Hunting.
