Removed Roof

I will put some pictures up soon I just finished removing the following parts:

-roof
-doors
-bumper
-carpet
-muffler
-backseat
-tailgate
-plastic
-rear seatbelts
-rocker panels
-all windows except windshield
-center console


I rattle canned it woodland camo and I am preparing to install a rear roll bar/cage and I plan on fabricating a canvas top of some nature, I am also preparing to make a new safari style bumper and move from 31x11.5's to 33x12.5's MTRS

All in all the truck RAISED itself another 1.5-2 inches from the weight removal

The bumpers alone would raise it that much.
