That would be a great looking truck if you took those front lights on the grille guard off and then took the lights under the rear bumper off. Well, also turned your muffler the way they are normally mounted. I think that would look 15x better. Other than those things I mentioned I think it's a sweet looking truck. Those are just things I'd want to change if it was my truck. Still a good looking truck though.

Nope no mods, and that is partly why the stock transmission went out 100,000 miles ago. So what if i'm almost double my max towing capacity, what does that really mean anyway
I realize I'm loading the truck and wearing out parts faster than they should be, but then again that is my choice. However judging from all the posts about reliability, I just had to point out that I routinly abuse my truck and work it well beyond the limits and don't have near the problems that most people are having. How many people out there have the 2500 and tons of trouble? Or are most the problems related the the 1500. Also how many people out there expect their truck to ride like a caddy, rather than a truck?
I doesn't matter what you buy, chevy, ford, etc. Ball joints will wear out over time, tie rod ends will wear out over time. The only problem that is really dodge specific seems to be the track bar.

but if you made it this far, you must be doing something right.

haha.. so you hate it all! hahaha.. well.. I got the wrong muffler and the offset is screwed up... I can turn it any other way due to the gas tank and drive shaft... the lights on the rear are for better visability due to the fact that the stock lights suck.. i work on a 3rd shift asphalt crew and it hard to see black asphalt in the mid of the night... I also plan on doing a ranch hand bumper in the spring with massive KC lights and maybe a winch as well... but for now this is all I have time and money for!
