there reallly easy if you have stock flares. Feel behiind the flares inside the lining theyll be bolts thats wqhat the flares brackets on too. Undo the botls the flares come off and reset them and bolt back on

Painted the stock rims with Rustoleum Hammered Black. It's hard to screw up when you're trying for an orange peel look.

Found the wires that came unhooked when I took apart my steering column so my wipers are working again.

Changed the fuel filter. Nothing like a little gas in the eyes.

Took of that damn plastic air dam below the bumper and trimmed the stock fender flares to the bottom of the stock bumper. I'm planning on trimming the front fender off at the bottom of the headlight in the front.

Looked at my sagging leafs and decided that shackles aren't the right way to go. I need to replace those leafs while I'm at it.
