Any reason for not just putting a 3rd gen Intercooler in?

I considered it. I wanted to be different and have it look different. I have everything to do a 3rd gen Cummins front end and still may in the future.

Nope. I like the clean look. I have however considered the prerunner fenders.

I usually would never say this... the pre-runners would probably look pretty good

The only thing that's deterred me from them is the fact that they dont have inner fender wells. I could probably make some but I haven't felt like doing it.

Added a 37 gallon transfer tank in the bed. It has an electric valve that I wired to a switch in the truck. That way I can flip it going down the highway and fill the main tank. I need to shorten my toolbox about 3 inches from the bottom so that it clears the tank. Click the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.

Added a 37 gallon transfer tank, electric valve, electric fuel level sender and electric fuel gauge. Came out pretty good. I had to shorten my toolbox and notch it for the filler neck. Also some new hauling pictures of the truck.
