When Buying parts for your truck.

When you want to start buying new part for your truck there are many things to consider like whether you want to build the engine first or start with the look of the truck. When I started working on my Ram 2500 Cummins I started with small things around the body of it because I didn't really have a lot of money. So I did things like paint the bumper and spray tinted my headlights and stupid little stuff like that. When I started to get a bit of money I started buying tinted headlight and tail lights I also put a Rough Country light bar on it and bought a new tool box. I also put a train horn on it I had to get the tool box for the air compressor for the horn it's a really cool setup. I then bought some green underglow for it. When I wanted some new rims I went with the Rockstar second generation they are all black and look great. I then moved on to looking for bumpers for the truck I looked around for a long time but I finally found the one I want. The brand is Iron Bull they build every bumper to fit your specific truck so this bumper wasn't cheap plus it had to be driven on a tractor trailer all the way from Texas to Fairview NC. I also hot a 12,000 pound Warn winch to go in it. That's about all i've done to the outside of the truck know the engine is a beast to i've had to upgrade the injectors as well as the turbo. I've also put a bigger clutch in it and it also has a smarty chip that helps the programing of the truck so it can produce more power. I also had to put gages in the truck so I can see my exhaust temperature and my boost from my turbo.  I've had to redo the exhaust on the truck to make it be able to handle the heat coming out it needed a bigger down pipe and I also made the pipe running from the turbo back into a 5 inch instead of a 4 inch I also put a rbp tip on the end of it. But if I could do it all over again I would probably do it a bit different I might start with the engine first instead of the looks just so I can have the money for that first because that's probably the most expensive part of the process in my opinion.
