I have been busy this weekend, although I still have not received the Alpine head unit, I've spent additional $678 for MTX mono amp (800w), Raptor digital top capacitor, thicker gage wiring (4 gauge) - distributor box, fuses and ext. All to ump the subs in the back of my pick-up. I’ve got most everything rewired; I should have it done by next week, hopefully.
I will be replacing the stock battery with Optima’s red top battery, very soon. My Truck has barely started a few days ago. I want to make sure I change it before the weather cools down.

Originally posted by ballisticc I am an applying member, so Alex stop me if I can't post here. Well, I got my se-r seats in on Saturday, (they look GOOD too), and on Sunday I picked up my z71 rims. I have to get the center bored out and put some tires and they are good to go! Anyone know of a good (cheap) place to get them bored? I have been cutting and fitting my se-r console into the truck now that the seats are in, so the inside is REALLY coming together.
Post away guy!! Looking forward to seeing your ride!!
Originally posted by eleuthardt UPS just brought me a grounding kit. Need to install it this week. Any advice (connection points) from those who have installed them.
Jason has...maybe if we're really nice to him he'll post a write up...
It does sound good and loud; the other day someone cut in front of me on I-635, so I pushed on the horn button and the not only did it scare him but also the cars on my sides too.

The grounding kit has been on a week now (full tank of gas), no improved milage, but radio is clearer, hits harder, smoother accelleration, smoother idle. And it looks cool. Thanks to Jason for all the help.
I am in the process of doing a write-up.

Since the oversized spare tire would not feet the stock location on my truck, I got me a Fabtech's spare tire mount.
This is a picture of what it looks like:
I got the black one.
And, I also got it installed this weekend.
Not only is it functional but it gives more of an OFF-ROAD look too.
I did lose some space in the truck's bed; but I it is worth it, safety and appearance wise.

I did some headlight mods to my matrix, i painted the shell black on them and added a pair of angel eyes. As well, i tinted my window: 35 front and limo around the back. NvUs stickers to come. Thats all for now but i hope to have a short air by the end of this year.

hey guys, today i bought my TRD drop springs and a TRD drop in air filter. I would have never guessed that the filter would make so much of a difference but it does. I still want my short air but this will suffice for a while. It will be a week or two before i get to install my springs due to timing. Can't wait to see how they look.
