Nice truck, looks great (aside from the ole'lady mod)... not a fan of those mods myself. very clean ride otherwise and those tires/rims look tuff.

Thanks, do you know where I can get another one? Mine is getting a little torn up. I got mine for a buck at one of the concerts I went to last summer.

Yeah I am getting the xenon bumper for my truck. I should have it on in a few weeks. I am going to order it monday.
My spoiler is actually a Lund windjammer. It was cheap and looks pretty cool. Its only like 60.00 I think. I pained it myself. It matched pretty well, but I was just experimenting since I maybe going to get a saleen spoiler. Those look awsome, and would go perfect with my truck.

Your stereo

How hard was it to put in the equalizer and the stereo? It looks like it fit perfect, but do you need anything other than a wiring harness? I'm not a big fan of sport trucks, but I like yours.
thanks
Mark

go monochrome

when you go to th body shop to fix the dent, you should have the fender flares and moldings painted red to match the res of the truck. that would go well with the sport truck image.

your wheels look nice, but it would look better with a wider wheel/tire combo. with those flares, you could stuff some serious meat in the back.

just for fun, i took the 17 X11 wheels with 315/35/17 tires off my mustang, and I put it on my explorer to see how it looked. unfortunately, the offest was a bit too tight, but the fat tires looked badass from behind. from the side, it looked silly because the profile was too low for the explorer (25.75")

If someone made a 315/45/17, that would be a 28" all tire; it would look tough on some 17X10 or 17X11. it would need a custom ofset though.

They equalizer is a piece of cake. It baiscly just comes with wiring for the power, then you just have a rca input, and outputs for the fronts, rears and subs. If you go to any stereo shop they will have the 1 1/2 din face plate. Really easy mod and it looks nice. I like it mostly because I can turn on and off my subs with a button on the EQ. And I can adjust the subs volume quickly with a slide on the EQ also.
Quadcam,
I had the exact same idea. That is my eventual goal is to have it a solid red. I think it would look really clean. I am also considering putting a new bumper on righ away. I did make a mistake in not researching how big of tires I could put on my rims. I only have 255/55s I know someone else has the same rims with 275s on them. I went witht he suggestion of the guy I bought them from. I wish they were wider. I have 1 inch spacers to put on, but I need to pull the studs off and trim them because they are too long. When I get my next set of tires I will definetly get them as wide as possible.
