    Welcome to the site. I fixed your post, to include the IMG tags that were mentioned. This allows your pictures to be displayed in the post, instead of just linking them to the Photobucket page.

    Anyhow, please tell us about your bulletproof upgrades and mods.

    How exactly did you do that so I can do that next time?

    Anyways heres the list so far

    This is my first build and my first truck.
    I am 17 so everything is on a tight budget but here is a list of the MODs I have done so far
    • 3.5 front 1.5 rear lift kit
    • 2 inch Rough Country wheel spacers
    • trimmed fender well liners
    • 285/70/R17 Hankook Dynapro ATMs
    • HD tow mirrors
    • Plastidipped matte black chrome trim and nameplates
    • Camo wrapped chevy bowties
    • Raptor look amber LEDs in grill
    • 55 watt 6k lows
    • 25 watt 6k fogs
    • IFW bedslide
    • Flat black painted rear bed covers and plastic cladding
    • Flowmaster 40 series dual turn downs

    In the future I also have lots of plans

    Okay so as far as performance I have a LOT of MODs I want to do so I will try to cover everything

    • COMP cam
    • Texas Speed stage 2 5.3 heads
    • COMP dual valve spring kit
    • COMP lifters
    • COMP pushrods
    • F.A.S.T. 33 lb injectors
    • F.A.S.T. 102 mm intake manifold
    • F.A.S.T. 102 mm throttle body
    • Airaid Throttle body spacer
    • Snow Performance water methanol injection system
    • Custom CAI
    • Pacesetter LT headers
    • Pacesetter LT off road Y-pipe
    • 4L80e trans swap
    • remote trans cooler with electric fan
    • Be Cool radiator with larger dual electric fans
    • Fuel pump upgrade
    • All lines changed to braided stainless
    • EBC drilled and slotted rotors
    • EBC green stuff brakes pads

    Okay so thats about it for performance that I can think off.
    As for everything else I would like to do here it goes

    • 7.5 inch Rough Country lift kit
    • KING 2.5 coilover made to 7.5 over stock to eliminate RC strut spacer
    • KING rear 2.5 piggyback shocks made 5 inch over stock to eliminate RC shock extension
    • Custom skid plate mounted to back of custom bumper and have that extend and mount to the front crossmember and keep extending to rear cross member and possibly back to protect transmission
    • Second gas tank mounted in spare tire position with second fill neck in stock position
    • Custom rear skid plate from front of second gas tank to the bottom of rear custom bumper
    • Dual exhaust out the back with 4 inch slash cut tips painted flat black with header paint (already have the tips)
    • Flowmaster 10 series
    • Cognito uniball UCAs
    • HD cab lights
    • 35 inch Mud Grappler
    • 18 inch XD crank
    • Custom bumpers
    • Custom side steps
    • Custom roof rack
    • Full size spare tire and rim combo
    • Light bars:
    • 2 50 inchers, 2 20s in front bumper, 2 20s in rear bumper, 4 20 inchers on roof rack (2 on each side)
    • 1 10 inch sub under rear seat
    • Pioneer 7 inch touch screen
    • Hornblasters train horn
    • 4.56 gears
    • Darker tint
    • Seat covers
    • Gun rack on ceiling
    • Hood vents
    • HD sierra hood trim with 5.3 vortec side emblems
    • Anzo U-bar headlights
    • Spyder LED taillights
    • Spec-D 3rd brake light
    • Recon Big Rig running board amber light strips
    • Recon extreme line of fire
    • Repaint whole truck- I want to remove all clear coat, spray on an additional 4 coats of black to try to get a deeper color and look and then 5 coats of clear on top of that for more protection for the paint
    • Hydrodip all the fake wood interior trim pieces
    • Remove headliner and spray sound deadening and thermal protection on roof and then put new suede interior with custom project bulletproof

    Never to be MODs include removing the whole body and dropping that on a 2500 frame with 6.6 duramax and allison and putting a solid front axle in there, of course this probably will never happen. And if it does, then it will have to be before a lot of the other ones I listed before

    Okay so I know it's a lot but I know for a fact I WILL get there one day even if by the time it happens I am 40. Its gonna happen.
