I forgot to say debadge the doors - I have it done as well - I thought it left a "shadow" on mine, but a little work with some mineral spirits and that was gone. Recon cab lights are a touchy subject it seems, but I am happy with mine. Taillights are not a direct replacement with older styles, they hook up differently, not sure on the specifics, but I think the new ones have 3 connections and the older styles only have 2?

 

is there a write up on how to rig it to work. if i have to i could cut off one lense and swap it with the other and re glue it.

 

If you get them now they won't and if you a have a little shadowing after you remove them, Meguiers #9 swirl remover will take of that.

 

Nobody has mentioned it yet, but why a CKENG light with only 147 miles???

 

I am sure it could be done somehow - I just know they are not direct replacements. I know Recon sells smoked LED taillights that are the older styling, but they require some wiring to be done on the 07's, I dont think they are direct replacement either. I am sure if you searched you could find some answers - Maybe Cbrahs will chime in, I think he has the Recon replacements, so he may know what needs to be done with the wiring?

 

Wow! To think of what I could have loaded up had I had a truck like this at 18 Use some fishing line and the badges will come right off. I pulled the 2500 badges off mine and smoothed the tailgate too but chose to leave the Cummins "C" on the fenders. It might leave an outline but nothing a little rubbing compound and 5 minutes elbow grease won't take care of. Cab lights will help it a lot and so will bigger tires. The older style taillights won't just swap in the wiring is different. I hated the "space age" ones at first too but they eventually grew on me.

Clean tailgate (note these led taillights are no longer in the truck i went back to stock):

 

Those are all some nice trucks! Looking at JB's vs the others there, the rear wheel well liners are nice. I have them too. Cleans up the look and keeps the dirt mostly in the wells. I also put on the Dodge molded mud flaps front and rear to protect the paint...

 

Did you notice the engine pic it said "6.7" I think that explains it Now where is that guy that traded his 6.7 back in for a 5.9 ....or maybe he just had the key on without the engine running it will make check eng light come on that way....

 

nope it was the check engine light its been on 3 times in 200 miles. i have 1500 on it now and no problems 1500 miles in a week wow i need to take it easy.

 

I was think'n the same but didn't want to rub it in! The engine was running cause if you notice the gauges (volt/oil pressure) there sitting in the middle.

 

Leveling kit and H2's! I did notice that after 1 year my 2006 3500 front springs had sagged enough that I couldnt get a 5 gallon bucket underneath the oil pan like I used to. So, my point is, even if its level now, I think the heavy Cummins does a number on the front springs.

OH- go get the OEM Dodge sidestep pipes; they have the black ones on sale right now at Dodgeparts.com (I took some chrome ones off a buddies truck that's getting repo'd!). They look great and their tucked up enough they dont high center offroad, but they still make it much easier for my little ones/wife to get in/out.

 

If it were my truck: debadge, window tint, cab lights, bigger tires, maybe some LED tail lights, 3rd brake light, line of fire, and call it a day.

 

i had it tinted today it looks good i got 5 on the rear door and back and 20 on on the sides and a cummins sticker at the top of my slider it looks alot better.

 

Didn't you read the forum rules? I didn't think so they clearly say you can't make a post like that without pics.

 

ill take pics tomarow
