I promised myself I wouldn't mod my truck...

But I broke that promise!


I broke down over the weekend, and did my first mod!






Can you spot it?

I see a body lift, but I don't know if you did it, it was lifted before.

Nope, no body lift here.


I hit my bumper last time I went wheeling, and it messed up the alignment.

That's right, I forgot it's an HD. Was thinking that grey/black filler above the bumper was aftermarket but it's factory.

r u a Menace to society???!!~

Where's the front license plate?


Plenty of (constipated) cops in Placer and Sacramento County would love to write you up for that heinous offense!!!

@Window tint is another one.

Don't choo axe how I know. ( )



Maybe you could put one of those contrasctor's/plumber's ladder racks over the truck's bed. Every white pickup truck up here has one on it.

Good, body lifts are lame.


It must be the bumper thing, the Allison trucks have those plastic filler panels because they have a factory body lift to clear the trans but in that pic it looks like you've got bonus gap.

Nice blacked out grill.



Now you need a real front bumper and winch, rhino lined of course!
