First you'll lose your mind
then any free cash laying around
Awesome mods will bloat your credit limits
Acting like a crack addict, refinancing your home, farm out the kids......
You'll cry yourself to sleep, stuff like, must get new rims.
Lift it skyward or drop it like it's hott.
Important questions like, polished or chrome, will shadow you day and NIGHT.

I wouldn't have the cojones to tackle a big job like that.


To me it's not to bad, building an engine and dropping a blower on is magic to me.

I see that 2500 still has the sunroof in it, wouldn't parting out the wind deflector would ya? The stinking plastic arms that bring the deflector back down on ours broke.

I tried the wind deflector fix but it didn't go so well.

Blue - Autowoods had some pretty good directions I followed when I put one of their wheels in my AV about getting the airbag off.  It's been a long time, but I do recall having to stick a pin in a hole to get the airbag assembly to release from the wheel as Alaska describes.

Dang Alaska - what happened to your AV????

ya the sunroof made it, I havent decided what to do with it yet. As it is not broken I dont think I'll part it out. Next time I'm at the wreaking yard I'll look for some parts 4 you.

Thanks I appreciate it. There are no Avs in salvage yards around here.
