I see the bed extender, how the suspension work go for you? btw, those wheels and tires look sweet brother. I would have to agree with painting calipers and drums.. I will be doing the same sometime soon.

get that thing tuned!

Red calipers it is then.

The suspension work made a world of a difference. I find myself going over potholes just because it feels so much nicer now

Next stop...dyno shop

Red will look perfect with your truck. I'm thinking of black for mine, and then on the drum I'm going to make a stencil that says "Hemi 5.7" and that will be the only hint to what's under the hood.

I never asked, but do you own an evo too?

Im going to do red calipers, and black drums. Really glossy.

I don't own an Evo, it's my dream car. I think it will be badass when I show up to the track with the Evo getting towed by a boosted raider.

I could probably get some good pictures too =)
