    Appreciate the added info. A friend of mine has a Peterbuilt and he wants to do something like this. Said he likes the 'sleak lines' they create. I'm with many of you though - it's just added weight when you think about it.

    Yeah I'm going to see what I can do about those hose lines this week actually, since I plan on getting the headache rack soon. Will keep you posted. Thank you!
     
    201 Thanks this.

    If your going to go for the Full Pimp with the running boards , may I also suggest the exhaust exiting the side of the hood running to sidepipes on the running boards along with some wide white wall tires.

    Maybe 50 yards of Fur inside too.
