Default BEFORE VS. AFTER MEGA CAB

Hey guys, well I have owned my 2006 Mega Cab for about 2 weeks now and I have gone pretty crazy with it......wanted to know what you think.

Before - Truck was sold new with most of these add ons, it was a Southern Comfort conversion truck, which included the Pro Comp 5.5" lift, Fender flares, 20" MKW wheels mounted on 35x1350-20 Pro Comp AT tires and everything else was pretty much stock for aLaramie package truck.

After - I really did not like the wheel/tire set up, I am more of a big tire/smaller wheel type of guy, so I purchased 37x13.50-17 Toyo MT tires mounted on 17x9 Raceline forged chrome wheels. Next, I purchased a OEM black grill. Then I had the door handles painted black. Debadged the truck. Then I bought AMP Reasearch electric steps, which are one of the coolest things I have ever bought. So, all this in a couple of weeks..........

Up to come mods -
- NightRunner headlights
- OEM tow mirrors (anyone want to trade???)
- Thru the fender exhaust tips on both sides of the truck in front of the rear tires with a Magnaflow muffler
- Road Armor front bumper, painted black
- BuckStop rear bumper, painted black
- Take out the factory plastic bedliner and Line-X the bed
and much more.....

Gotta say, coming from a H2, I love this Dodge so much more.....plus I get 10x the thumbs up driving around town........

Anyway, let me know what you guys think!!!

I'm not into the mega's, but I must say, yours looks awsome with the lift and both set's of wheels. I prefer the 20 inchers, with those 37 inch wheels, you must climb over those H2. Very nice truck

Nice look. I wish I could raise my truck up alittle, but I have problems with parking garages down here...LOL.. You should also look into a bull bar or nice brush gaurd. That would make the truck look so mean.......
