De-badged the stuck on chrome "Big Horn", "RAM" and "4X4" bits, and replaced the remaining chrome hood bezels, grill letters and tail gate emblem with the black OEM versions... Here are a couple pics:

Next up on the agenda is what to do about the wheels... Thinking about powder coating the stockers a gunmetal gray for the time being while I figure out what to do long term... :unsure:

What were your thoughts on the ridge grappler in the snow?
They were awesome, I didn’t loose traction at any point, I just threw it in 4 wheel auto, locked the axle and went over everything, some parts were icy and almost 2 ft deep

How'd you black out the tailgate handle? Was it a replacement or spray? Looks good...

What bulbs did you use? I was looking on Amazon but wasn’t sure which to grab.
I just copied another guy some posts back. Go back a little and you’ll find it. I don’t have the info here :)

Your truck looks terrific!! Maybe I'm biased because I have exactly the same one! :) I installed Blizzaks on the same 22" factory wheels as you, but the Nittos you have are on my MAYBE list for summer. I want something more aggressive for non-winter months, but I will NEVER off-road my truck. How is the ride and handling on paved roads? Are they loud at highway speeds? Any clearance issues? I want the biggest I can install without mods.

Thanks!

Had the truck for just about 2 weeks now. Loving it except for clink sound when turning taking in this week to get checked. Just finished washing this morning and had tires put in this week. Other details thus far include ceramic tint all around, xpel covering on front and lower body panels, undercover top for bed.

How do you like the Terra Grappler tires??? It looks like those are 285 / 50 / R22, right? I have the same factory wheels, and I want a more rugged looking tire (even though I will NEVER go off-road!) I want to go 285 / 55 / R22, but it adds just over an inch to the diameter, so I don't want to order a tire that's too big!

Your truck looks fantastic!

Thanks, you have great taste in speaking out a truck! The 33’s are the largest I could get away with and they still rub slightly at full rotation, overall I love the tires and I mainly use them for everyday city and highway use, they are great and not loud at all and feel very stable. You should take your truck off-road sometime it really makes your u appreciate it more.
