Thanks Byron . Next task will be to hit the front bumper top cap , front fender flares and the mirrors with some back to black . Need to do the door handles now that I think about it . She's slowly shaping up I'll just keep picking away at it

Wow how time flies ! Been doing some small upgrades to kong like cold air intake and a double Din Android install . A few weeks ago I spotted a CL ad for some dually wheels/tires . A few calls later they followed me home . Six wheels in total - two regular steel inners and then four aftermarket aluminum . They are not Alcoa's they are Ultra brand but for $800.00 for six wheels/tires with center caps and lug nuts I have nothing to complain about .OEM tire size was 215/85x16 these are 235/85x16 so a little bigger .

The tires are Michelin XPS Ribs they are 10 ply and HEAVY !!! The back four are in great shape the front two are wearing on the outside as the previous owner apparently needed a front end alignment badly . For now I will run them and replace the fronts in the spring . Anyway here are two pics from an hour ago , classic dually look I like them I haven't polished them yet but will soon .

Oh man, that really woke it up a lot . I like it !
I have the factory dually simulators, and I kind of like them, because, they retain the OE center caps, but nothing looks better than old school nugget alum dually wheels !
. I hate some of the new wheel styles . totally gay

Thanks . I actually thought I wanted this same style wheel but in satin black . I stumbled across these classic polished and now that I have them on I like them . Plus the price was too good to pass up 😁.

Hey Milt , the flat bed is in my man cave garage waiting it's turn in the project rotation . Too many projects not enough time 😡 ......... and I'm retired !!! As soon as I finish the second garage I will install the flatbed . The second garage should be done in the next few months .
