I roll out on Tues, so I'll be out of the net for about a week or so until I get settled in down there. They already picked up my stuff the other day, so I'm surfing on the wifes laptop.

I ended up taking off the HEAVY DUTY logo too.

I'm calling this photo, "A Ford's Eye View"

Exterior is gonna stay "very" modest. I want it to look like a normal, everyday, run of the mill Ram. That way, when the smack gets layed down, the little bastards feel even dumber.

The only stuff I'm looking at on the exterior is a leveling kit, some wheels / tires (20's at the biggest, most likely 18's), tow mirrors and the rear wheel well liners. After all, I did buy this thing to be a tow pig for a 5'ver so I can't go big with this one, like I did my last truck.

Now..........my plans for the drivetrain get a little more sadistic. [sm=badbadbad.gif]

Trans, FASS, intake elbow and intercooler, injectors (haven't decided which yet), turbo (if my EGT's get to far out of whack) and then maybe a hotter box / programmer / combo.

Should be in about that order.

Basically, enough to throw you back, but not so much that I have to do internal mods to the engine.

Looks good Cumminalong! But now I am going to have to debadge my tailgate [:@]. The other day when I did my truck I left the tailgate alone but after looking at yours I guess I need to get busy tonight.

It does look a lot cleaner, doesn't it?

I had to put the CTD badge right there though. [:-]

I agree with Sharx, he has 18's and they are a nice look.

Yeah, they are a good proportion to the truck.

That's a big key when I do something to my truck, it has to look like it fits. If it's too big, small, otherwise, it doesn't complement.

Jesus.............that sounded like a friggin Martha Stewart comment! [:'(]
