:cheeky:

Sounds like a good plan to me :crazy:

Side note, 2014 can go to hell with it's inconsistency and no truck mods. Here's to some changes hopefully in 2015 :cheers:

Maybe it'll start with a wash since the truck looks like this :crazy:

Mostly doing this update to remind myself and get motivated once I finally pass my nursing license and make some cash.

-Needs a major polishing first off since I have the stuff already

-Install leather steering wheel that's in my closet

-Noticed headlights are fogging just slightly once in awhile so I need to run some silicone around them again since its been a few years since they've been cleared.

-Needs new windshield

-Needs rear shocks bad, just undecided on going with the street performers again or something else.

-Really want new wheels in 2015 but regardless I need to get it checked to see if current wheels have sensors and if so get them reset since I couldn't get them to or if not get some put and wheels balanced and rotated along with an alignment.

And of course there's always other plans and dreams (LT2 console, V8 swap, etc. etc) but above things are what realistically needs to be taken care of first.

-Needs new windshield, up'd the insurance coverage so deductible would be $50 instead of $500. Just "waiting" a few months before claiming for new windshield.

The weather has been messing my lights up too, my stock lights

Looks great! How did you clear the headlights without taking the grille off?

Grille was being a PITA to get off at the time so we just took the lights off without taking off the grille. Just takes a little determination. Lol.

That sucksssss. I need to take a full weekend to mess with the truck at my dads place. One day to just button stuff up like the lights, etc. and another day to give it a polish and cleaning.

Who has reflectors these days? :troll:

Right!? When are you going to clear those new lights? Lol

Not much has changed, got it polished like I said I needed to, got a new windshield, and should have new rear shocks in next 2-3 weeks or so...

All polished at CGM meet in July...

Strike another thing off the 2015 to do list lol....Got some new rear shocks, old ones were wayyyy past due to be replaced. Passenger side was worse than driver, it wouldn't even re-extend after being compressed, driver side would atleast re-extend

Shoutout to Kristina for quickkkk shipping and taking care of folks. +1 on that customer service!

Old driver side vs. old passenger side

Rides way better, however, still needs an alignment bad and maybe wheels and tires rotated and balanced and I should be golden!

Haha. Will do next time, was more of a run down to dads and change shocks and then get back to Shreve thing this time.

Yea Chris, wtf?

Did you ever get that that bag stuff you won like last year?

Won it in 2013. Lol. Yeah, I got it. BayouSam brought it to me from Nfamus when he came through from picking up his truck last year. I have it in storage at dads with some NFamus notches I bought off Angelo.

Mine isn't either and I paid for mine lol. Sad part is that rear kit is pretty much the cheap part. Tank, compressors, line, front kit, air management, install, tubs, wheels is what takes the cake.
