thanks man! shes getting there!



The rims are going to be getting powdercoated soon. i am thinking of doing a "mirror silver" bottom coat to give it some shine, then some type of a black on the face of the rim, and leave the flat part of the holes the mirror silver. just something different than the normal black rims.

that should look really good. i thought about painting my stock rims black leaving the bullet holes silver like your talking about to run in the winter. im gettn ready to do the 05-07 conversion and was curious about the top valance. does yours have the absorber pad or is it even needed? also which headlight conversion harness did u use from pure diesel?

You need a complete upper valance, absorber pad and all. And I'm not sure what SmokinStroke used for his headlights, but this is what I'm using and would recommend Headlight Conversion Harness

When I ordered my harness it was on back order, so they sent me those pig tails and the 9008 side of the connector ended up melting. I don't know why it did it, but I've used those little pig tail connectors on other trucks without problems. And the conversion harness is a nice piece as well for a little more money.

new bed will be on this weekend and it will get the cab corner soon hopefully!

Time for an evening with a 12 pack, a cupped wire wheel on the angle grinder, a few cans of rust stopping primer, and some undercoating.

Also, you might want to look into doing the cab corners before you put the bed on, since the bed has to come off to do them. My bed will be coming off in the next few months to do them.

hey Konnor, if you already ordered harnesses for the headlights ( I don't remember ) go online and just buy the pigtails, it cost me 20 bucks shipped for both harnesses and adapted them right to the stock wiring....truck's comin along nicely, how's the OBS comin?

Nope. going to put enough bolts in to hold it down, bed wont be on there for long before it gets pulled again to do cab corner, by then hopefully the OBS will be driveable so i can park the SD and really have at it.
