Default Im back!

Well not actually back yet.... in transit from Fort Lostinthewoods Mizzou. Went through bct and just finished up ait there. Lemme tell you i hate Missouri weather. Got a couple of months before i go over to seas and have about 5k to throw at the truck. First is some new rubber, the Bfg a/t tkos got to go, they are basically brand new but too small. Fell in love with the looks of the discoverer stts so im gonna get them in 35s along with some adapters. Havent heard much about the tires perfomance so i know hammer will have some info from one of his huntin buddies. Also gonna throw in 4.56s in both ends. Not gonna put a lift on i like the way its sitting now, unless i find a deal on craigslist lol. HIDs are a must, not sure if im gonna do the projector changeover but ive been looking at previous threads and googled a guy name twiggy but didnt really pull anything up. I know you guys know of a guy that sells the complete kit that takes care of the flicker prob. Tow mirrors, roll bar with lights and cab lights should round out it out...... Also i like to spend time in sloppy mud and have been lookin for a snorkel but cant find anything. Yall know where to look cause google is not helping? Thanks for supportin our military, I never knew how much it means to a soldier when a stranger comes up and thanks him till now.

CPL Cooper US Army Chemical Corps, Dragons of the battle field HOOOAH!

well first off.. thanks for serving your country! we all thank you!
your planning one bada$$ machine there, nice mod list.
as far as a snorkel goes, youll probably have to fabricate one out of pvc pipe, and either run it up the side of the cab, or plumb it to suck air from the inside of the cabin, if you dont like the look of a big pipe by your windshield.

btw, is there really a fort lostinthewoods, ? or are you talking about fort Leonard Wood?
i live about an hour south of StL and yes that is probably a dumb question, but knowing missery i wouldnt doubt it.

Hey if you hate Missouri weather, just set back and chillax for 5 minutes. By the time that 5 minutes is up, the weather will have changed.
