Default Got a little bit done


The roll pan turned out great. Pretty sure my phone camera has over spray on it. Will post better pics this weekend.
I think my bed is turning out better than my cab... might re spray the cab...
Just a heads up Steve from jack my ride has been working on my lift. He is a great guy to deal with.

Default Gears!

So the lift kit from Steve is almost done. In fact the rear blocks and u bolts just came in. I need to start thinking about gears. I will be running 35 12.5 on an 18 any have any first person experience with 4.56s? Or should i go lower? What are your experiences with re gears. I really wanna do big smokies on 35s. And the yukon dura grip posi is going in no matter what gears i pick!!!

Glad to see it all together finally, looks great. I'm not sure on gears, but I'm sure you'll get it figured out soon enough.

Default Lift kit.



Got the rear blocks mounted. Jmr is working on my front end parts! Thanks Steve. Dont like the flares i ordered. Went to dodge today they cant find trx flares. The trx flares people run are for the 08+ right?

The Dakota TRX flares will fit on any 2005-2011 Dakota, they are the ones that I have below. FYI, they are not paintable. I ordered from HERE (link to quad cab Dakota TRX flares), they look to be still available.

Here is a close view, showing the shape somewhat.
