SRW swap done!

Finally done with my SRW swap. Rear axle is swapped out, front hub/rotors swapped out. Bed swapped. I'm a lot happier with it now.

Before

After

And my stacks almost done...

Are you fabbing the stacks up yourself or did you buy what you have in the bed so far? If you made it what kind of paint is that? Came out real nice, trucks lookin good.

I made the stack setup I've got. Got the 5" T fitting for $60 on ebay. Got all my 90's and pipe from Airflo. I'm running 4" under the truck and then 5" when it hits the T.

I actually painted it with the 500* engine enamel you can buy at the parts store. Came out really good.
Just waiting for the wife to let me buy my 5" chrome bullhaulers now!
