I briefly considered selling or trading in my low mileage (37K miles) '99 SLT RAM but then, I thought that didn't make a lot of sense. Why take on a new payment? :SHOCKED: I just wanted more power, more height, more of everything.
Besides, there's nothing wrong with this truck that a few mods won't fix. And I do prefer the older style RAM body style to the newer ones. No offense to you newer RAM owners. :gy:
So, I've spent some time the past week doing some parts research via the web and a few hardcore MOPAR buddys of mine. Here's my planned mods list:
1. Ram Sport front bumper/fascia conversion with foglights, body colored grill shell and black mesh grill.
2. Steel 3" cowl hood.
3. Rear steel roll pan with hidden hitch and license plate flip kit.
4. HID headlight conversion.
5. Badge and molding removal.
6. Spray in bed lining.
7. Westin bull bar, skid plate, PIAA 4" driving lights.
8. 5" Superlift lift kit.
9. 35" Toyo MT tires.
10. Wheels (TBD)
11. 408 stroker motor, based on the 360 Magnum LA block.
12. GearZ...
And last, but not least, new paint.
I'm probably crazy. :4-looney:
So, pray for me folks. This is gonna be quite the build, it won't be cheap (but cheaper than a new truck) and my wife WILL NOT UNDERSTAND!
Thanks for looking.
