Default My list is growing.

It's now Spring here. I'll be using the truck a lot more for things like yard work and camping, and occasional driving just for the heck of it. It needs some minor maintenance and I have some upgrades in mind. It seems, however, that the list has grown larger over the winter on top of everything I have done to this point.

Been done:

231 to 242 TC Swap
16" to 20" Ram Wheel Swap
Pin Stripe / Sport Decal removal

In Progress:

Rear Bumper Repair

THE LIST !!!

Replace Driver Fender
Paint Front Bumper
Replace Headlights (Dual Beam Sport Upgrade)
Replace Foglights
Blend Door Motor Fix
Prius Electric Pump / Heater Core Flow
Hydrobooster - Hydraulic Power Brake Booster
Track Bar
Ball Joints
Steering Stabilizer Plate
Disc Rear Axle Swap
Muffler / Exhaust
Bed Liner
Polish Paint Job
Late Model Emblems

Yes, I know I am the only guy on this forum without a lift of some kind on my list of things to do. Call me crazy, but I don't feel like my truck needs to be jacked up. It's already taller than my 4x4 Durango by a long shot, and as it is I have to toss my Wife up in the cab when she's riding with me. LOL.

Hopefully I will have pics to post of all the things I am doing. Thank god MOST items are inexpensive and relatively easy to do. Wish me luck, and post up some of your Spring projects.

When I leave the state of Maine to move to Indiana, I'll be rebuilding the whole front end of my truck, along with changing the tires from 255/70/16 to 285/70/16. Bit of a natural lift to the truck where as of now, my girlfriend already has issues getting in herself. Haha. Gonna replace all of the chrome parts as well as both heated mirrors. Gonna do a lot of work since its junk yard galore down there.

This thread is perfect for the 2nd Gen RAM general discussion/NON-tech forum.

I thought it was perfect for Tech too, since a lot of technical questions will arise from the reading and listing of everyone's projects. The things we're doing are of technical nature at least, and will be discussed as such.

Going to move this to the General discussion forum for the time being. It it waxes technical, it can always be moved back.

It seems like the tech section is more for "help my truck is broke" and the gen section is where all the ongoing swaps, long term projects, etc... are at.

Interesting way to phrase it. Accurate too.
