Installed a putco shadow grill and took some daytime shots

Installed a Putco Shadow Grill yesterday. It's starting to come together. The leveling kit is on the way.

Nice looking truck. I think the leveling kit will really look good on it!

Thanks man, yeah...are there any concerns with tie rod ends on these trucks when you level them out? I've heard horror stories but then I've heard they don't effect it at all either.

When I installed my leveling kit, I all of a sudden got the dreaded death wobble. That was on the 04.5. Now on my 06 it will remain stock.

Looks good. Leveling kit made mine just look right. Need to add a matching bumper insert to finish it off.

Nope, no rub except I hate a bump once while fully cranked and got a little rub on the inner plastic fender. No biggie though...they ride WONDERFUL for how aggressive they are.

Yeah, I am probably going to put a westin bull bar on the front end so I don't think it would be beneficial to cover up the bumper instert. It looks killer on your ride though.

Thanks, I really would like a Ranch Hand Bull Nose replacement bumper, but not until after I get the racing itch scratched.

I like the Ranch Hand stuff...i've dealt with it on several vehicles. The stuff installs nicely and rarely has fitment issues. I'll probably leave the stock bumper in place but if I get the itch to replace it i'll be putting this cat on there. The one that fits the dodge is beautifully made and is killer in quality.

Nice looking truck guys. I hope to add a leveling kit and some rims and tires soon...probably around spring. Still haven't 100% decided on what I want to go with yet.
