Some updated pics, not good ones as it was in my garage at my house. Here's a picture of the new steering wheel. The wheel is identical.

Hickey tire rack on the back with an original spare on it. The jerry cans will go on next.

I also installed the NOS grill into it and that looks awesome. She's starting to come together now. The carpet will go in next weekend. I also got my original drivers side door panel to look pretty decent. I used the cardboard panel out of another truck door panel and stappled my material to it. Looks pretty good.

Looking good Ryan.

So your original steering wheel was a brown right? I might buy one of those for mine. I'm not a big fan of the original SE steering wheels and my "sport" wheel won't work on the tilt column.

Yup, the original wheel had brown leather. If you call the company up you might be able to order the same wheel I have but with brown leather instead. I dont mind the black as the column is black and there's black on the dash. The metal spokes are right on the money and are exactly the same.

The wheel looks nice in black. I might go with the light tan colored one to match my interior. Only problem with those light colored ones is they show dirt easy.

That Hickey tire carrier doesn't look too complicated other than the quarter brackets. What are they made off, almost look like a solid casting from the pics. Is the carrier just 3/4" or 1" bar maybe?

the corner peices are alum castings. The bars I'd say are about 1 1/2 around. I'll take some better pics of it soon when it stops raining.

Took my jerry cans out of there box today to install and there very cool and very well made. I installed them with the factory hardware included in the Hickey rear rack and they are held on very good. It even has a spot where you can lock them up so someone cant steal them. I'll take some pictures of it when it stops raining and I can actually pull the truck out of the garage. I've also noticed that Hickey had hi-lift jacks in there brochures and I'm going to try and find a factory one to install inside the ramcharger as well. This thing is starting to look really cool, I'm loving it.
