Not a drastic change, but the beginnings of the color scheme. I painted the headlight surrounds, grill, and emblem. These pics are not great, but there will be more in daylight.

The flash made my emblem look like shit. There will be more. First thoughts? I like it...

Realign your hood and it looks so much better than before with the black-eye headlight. It's a drastic difference and the bow tie looks pretty sharp!

Thanks! I'm going to take the hood off when I put in the new motor (hopefully next week), and will realign it then. I hadn't really even noticed it was off :oops: . I can't wait to start the camo pattern. I think it's going to look good with the black rock crawlers I have on the truck now. :twisted:

It looks like a toyota cap with the forward wall at a rake. I got it off of a 98 S-10 (it didn't fit that either).

I never saw it stock, but with the shackle extensions and body lift I would say ~6". Those are LT31x10.50 15 muds...

Why do you ask?

Yeah, it's approximately 3"body and 3" shackles (I haven't measured them except with the old eyeball).

Thanks for all the nice comments, guys (except nelson :P, and no, the "camper" doesn't need to come off :) ).

Later
