This is me screwing up and learning about the rear flip kit and shackles. These three pictures explain it 100%.

Then came the cadi. lights in the bed

And then it came upon my door step. My grill and my corner lights.

And now what it looks like today.

Cost for this project so far.
$360.00 = lowering kit.
$30.00 = grill
$15.00 = corner lights
$200.00 = for a bed to practice my cadi lights inserts on.
$30.00 = white paint
$50.00 = a computer module

for things i screwed up on.
$50.00 = new leaf springs. (I was a idiot and cut my last ones.)
$25.00 = for misc items.

Tons of time spent screwing things up and then going back and fixing it. I believe the rear end is fixed right now. I have a lot more planned for this vehicle.
 
I agree, I really like the taillights as well.

Keep us up to date!
 
Thank You guys. It means a lot. This truck finally rides smoothly for the first time since i put the lowering kit on.. because i didn't know what i was doing. :)
 
the tail lights are kick ass... you bought the bed right?

Is there a kit to do that or is that 100% custom sheet metal work?
 
I bought the bed. The lights come as a kit. But when i bought the bed it had the cadi lights in it but i had to do alot of metal work around them. I believe you can buy the kits from stylin truck or fbirides.com
 
Looking good...tail-gate's a little crooked tho....throws the license plate off a lot...but that's just me.(.but why is everybody passing me up.....I'm not doing that much of a change to the thing!

rim question? what size rims do you think will fit under my truck as it sits now. I was thinking something like a 20" but that might be a tad to big.
 
if you have a 3/4 drop you should be able to turn some 20s on the front i wouldn't go any bigger than a 255 35 20 though.
 
thats what i was thinking.. thank you all for the props on the truck.
