Cool

Finally got around to uploading pics of the 31 LED rear tail light/output.




Also installed new chrome amber turn signal bulbs in the black housings up front.





The black housings deleted the factory fogs. Ive got a couple of ideas and a pair of projector fogs with the correct adapter already. They are probably gonna get mounted inside the end of the frame. Ill probably need to flip the tow hooks. Maybe extend the wire harness by 6"-8"

Originally I wanted to mount them behind the grille but they are to big or deep. The harness rests on the radiator. No bueno...
but I found a lower valence I really like.



Its a little pricey if you ask me but may happen some time in the future. I think it would look really good with the fogs I have. Before I spend money on any of that I need to get these KYB shocks, Energy poly control arm bushings, ball joints and steering stabilizer installed.



Also gonna need an alignment. Should ride sweet after all that.

Replaced the passenger side ball joints again....finally. The top of the tire was leaning out pretty good before I replaced them. Turns out the upper ball joint bolts worked loose somehow. :/

Just dropped truck off at shop as I have to work tomorrow.

$760 for everything....didn't want to pay it, but everything was a safety concern so had to get fixed ASAP before I head out to Texas next week.

Decided to remove the front hooks and put low profile lights in the spaces. Haven't done it, just made a decision (important step for me!)

Got alignment done. Replaced: Upper Control Arm Busings, Rear shocks, two tires, tie rods, rear brake pads and had rotors turned.

No days off so took it to the only shop I trust to touch my truck. $962.00 was the final bill. :/ But truck drives soooo perfect now.

Half of that total was just the tires and UCA bushing labor. Also for my ABS light I am showing a LF speed sensor fault, and I replaced it 11k and I can not find the dern receipt for it!!!!!!!!
