thanks. i figured that none of the yota boys answered because maybe i would not buy it so they could  i did buy it. The mods are coming  box turbolined bumpers turbolined too! Can chrome be turbolined if i sandblast first? i assume that its chrome flake paint and not solid chrome? toneau cover ALL graphics and stickers and "badges" removed so i can buff out the paint. Besides you don't think i want people to know i drive a toy bench seat gone to replace with 2 Mustang bucket seats! Mag rims of course. And one day i will SLAM her to the ground with awesome ground effects and flares and a big spoiler too!!!!! NOT

i did some cutting, lifting (torsion bar ), tinting, decal removing, seat upgrades, tire and rim upgrades, turbolining and tonneau coverage. All said the truck being rust free and diesel with LOW kms, it ended up being worth lots more than i paid. Sad to think its worth more than my 97 TJ  i did the appraisal to ensure if truck was burnt, stolen or crashed that i would not get the obligatory $500 or $1000 that the black book says its worth. True that i will be paying more to insure it but IF something happened i will be glad i did this. Tom Final pics will be posted by the end of next week.
