Looking great, I really liked the Nexxus gauges, more modern then most with the lighted needles and all. Keep up the work!

Re: Carbon-10

This truck is awesome!! First time I've seen this thread. Question for you? Why you leaving the stepper and going to fleet side? Is it to allow for the bigger wheels and keeping BS?

Yes I had 20s on stepside and couldn't get it any lower top of tires would rub inner fenders . I'm running 22's and wouldn't get it low enough with stepper.

Re: Carbon-10

This truck is looking awesome. Love the dash swap. Found this thread because I am doing the 62 dash into a 69 cab and wondering how other people are doing it. Can't wait for updates!
