Had my drivers seat cut down to a bucket seat, installed my expo center console, painted exposed parts of my frame in the rear wheel wells, also painted exhaust and trailer hitch.

Finished swapping my leaf springs and replaced all the shocks. The rear after all the work done to it has lifted 2" (from 20" to 22" between wheel hub and bottom of flare) and the front lifted 1" (19" to 20"). Now when I get time I am going to crank the t-bars and level the front with the back.

Bought my truck a canopy, gave the canopy its first coat of black paint to match the truck, and i painted my rims. This is what happens when i don't go camping because my boss has me work ot, now i hope it happens more because there are a few more things i'd like to get/do to the truck.
