hey all.
Been lurking around for a bit on here and figured i'd post some pics of the start of my ram 1500.
got it brand new bone stock with all the ugly chrome trim.
list of mods to come are:
4" lift
wheels and AT tires
F & R bumpers
rack
rtt tent
black out everything.
this is the way she looked when i got her.
i Love this truck. drives super nice and is way to pretty, both inside and out for me.
So far i've added steps (wife is 5'2, already has problems hopping in)
swapped headlights + hid's
swapped taillights (smoked LEDs)
got a stock primer grey grill, cut it up and got it line-Xed and a smittybilt M1 SS grill
gotta get those chrome mirror covers and door handles line-X ed too
and i started on a basic rack to accept our Tepui tent
Rear bar has been made removable so i can still get a dirtbike or a bookshelf or whatever into the bed.
Sorry for the crappy pics, i gotta take some nicer ones.
right now the rack is mounted and i'm probably gonna drive around with it for a min.
i'm going to add a bunch of mounts to it, Rotopax, awning, who knows what else, so i know i'm gonna be welding a bunch of tabs and brackets and whatnot.
eventually i'll get it sandblasted and painted (probably line x)
this is my 1st time using a tubing bender. eventually i want something more like a chase rack, with a modular rear and the possibility of mounting the tent over the cab.
here's a dumb little mock up i did
