Welcome to FTE....and NICE looking truck!!!

Nice to see more SC'ers coming in. I'm down in Goose Creek, near Charleston.

What motor and trans does it have? Duals? People here will have lots of ideas when they know that stuff.
We have sponsors....listed at the top of the page....that have all kinds of things you can do and add......
I use a company called LMC Truck a lot for items I decide to get......just put a set of window visors on made specially for a truck with wing windows. Brand new item they are carrying now.
Anyway......LMC, Summit, Jegs, JC Whitney all have truck catalogs and tons of ideas.....
If it was mine......I'd keep it pretty much stock on the outside, maybe a tonneau/bed cover, nice wheels like you are adding. It sure looks like it's been well taken care of.

Good Luck
Bob

You asked for suggestions.....I just posted a link so you could have a few. Other than that, I wouldn't have any idea what you're trying to accomplish.
