I like to do as much of the work to my rig as i can. I have had lots of help from Clyde at Spyder offroad. Big thanks to him for letting me use shop space since i dont have a place to work on my rig. Bought this in January 2011. Was a lease turn in with 37k on it. First thing i did was go play in the dirt. First pic i took of it. Didn't have time to do much before i went back to the boat for 28 days. But when i got back on March first the fun began. I installed my Pioneer head unit, amp,and RE audio sub. Put a CB above the mirror. Added fire extinguisher. I also added some stickers.( I love stickers for some reason ) This shot is from before i knew about JSM. Then i added my Hilift on the hood. I then worked out a deal with Clyde for a 4 inch RC lift. Also some used 35 inch tires and wheels. Just in time to meet a few of you at 4WP march madness.

Lots of gizmos and gadgets. And yes the passenger eject is functional now, who wants to be first to try it?! Just put on some Metalcloak quick disconnects that I won in a ride of the month contest.

Put on my Ruff stuff tie rod. GM 1 ton offset tie rod ends and 1 5/8 tube. Hopefully it will hold up to Hydro assist.
