I got the new wheels on there.  Raceline Renegade 8's 18x8.5 with 0 offset.  BFG KO's size 275/70R18




Thought Id Put up some pics of how it is today vs the day I first got it and got it cleaned up.  Quite a difference!

Awesome truck Kenny, I thought I wouldn't like your wheel choice but I was wrong once they were wrapped in rubber.

Thanks Fellas, I'm loving them!

Got my new driving lights on today.  They're Hella 550 Driving Lights.  They have H3 Bulbs.  I've bought lots of sets of these, I love em!   ;D

I got the driving lights wired up today.  I have them aimed to do some good and they only come on with the high beams.

I like em, I like em a lot.  They look so much better than my headlights, I think it's time to buy some of those hella 7" replacements.




Kept the visible new wiring to a minimum.  These 2 short runs are all that's visible.  I used the stock looms for the rest.

Got a new Tag


And found a decent set of window handles.  As far as I can tell, unless you find genuine GM parts, ALL the correct type handles suck in every way they can.
These Are Dorman PN# 76912.  They are metal and the knob doesn't rattle all around.  they also fit the handle washer well.
