So about a year ago I noticed that when it rained there was water on the corners and a patch in the back middle of my headliner. Me not being back there ever I hadn't thought about it much. When we went on the roadtrip for the holidays my mom pointed it out, when I looked at it I noticed it got a lot worse. So today being that I have no school and don't work till 3 I called the dealership. Being under extended warranty I thought it would be taken care of but he said since it has over 36,000 miles that it would cost about $300-400 in parts and labor and he said it was the third break light. I literally told him screw that I'll do it on my own. Anybody else have this problem? How'd you fix it? I took off the third break light and noticed there's some moisture in there.

And last thing before I go to work, I'm really looking into getting e-fans. Which ones should I get? Brand/size

Thinking of those. I have a hookup with Jegs too

Thank you! Getting tint on Tuesday, matching it to the back so 20%. Here's some pics of level and hooks

Looks like its sitting nose high but (I dont know if you can see it) but my driveway slopes up. Sits perfectly level, so happy!

Also- have a buddy that works at jegs and can get me a hookup on SkyJacker Nitro 8000 shocks. Anybody used these?

EDIT: He said he can get me the 2 rear shocks for $50. Good deal? More importantly how much will it improve my ride?

You need a programmer now! I'm the same as you, I'm 22 now but I too got my truck before I was 18 and had my dad co sign for it. It sure is addicting modding these trucks haha

Haha for sure! After i play the first 2 national events this year in march (Galveston and Huntington Beach) Im getting the programmer. Thinking about getting these rear shocks for the pure love of adding things and looking at it and thinking "bad. ***."

The stock shocks on these trucks are only good for about 30k. Swapping them out will be a big improvement. They are also very easy to install on the rear. You should do the fronts also.
