The shock was to big to fit in the hole in the control arm.

the only thing i would do is paint your fender flares black or white to match (unless they are black-they look tan in the pics)

Thanks guys, you know I was just thinking about that 10 minutes before this post. I am looking into getting black lightning heads and some type of tail light that goes with (can't decide before or after exhaust setup).. But was considering how it might look to paint the grill black/fender flares and top of bumper. That way everything on the truck is either black or white.

Still need to get that dent out of the front bumper too!
