Make a Plan

• 1). Establish a realistic budget for customizing your Chevrolet Dually pick-up truck. Remember that not all of the work needs to be done at once, and creating the ideal vehicle may be an ongoing process. Break your budget and modifications into time frames to help plan your purchases wisely.
  
  
• 2). Research interior aftermarket accessories for your truck. Available items may vary, according to the model of the cab. Select items that help add function and personality to the truck. Include items that are simple to install--such as seat covers, shifter knobs and floor mats. Select more expensive items based on the budget and primary uses of the truck--such as gauges, dash panels and stereo systems.
  
  
• 3). Plan the desired exterior appearance of the truck. Look at magazines and other Dually trucks to get ideas of what you like. Consider quick modifications, including custom wheels, different tires or bed liners. Plan more expensive and time consuming modifications, such as paint and suspension lifts or lowering kits, according to your budget.
  
  
• 4). Decide if any performance modifications are desired. Select tuning chips, fuel injection enhancements and aftermarket exhaust systems based on the type of engine that equips your truck.
  
  

Customizing Your Truck

• 1). Execute the first steps of the customization plan by purchasing the aftermarket parts you selected based on your budget and desired look. Work with a local customization shop or online parts retailer to buy the parts.
  
  
• 2). Install the aftermarket accessories. Items such as floor mats take little time and effort to install, while parts such as wheels and suspension kits may be best installed by a professional mechanic.
  
  
• 3). Continue to look at other vehicles and vehicle customization publications to get ideas for customizing your truck. Maintain your vehicle according to the manufacturer's specifications to ensure that the truck lasts as long as possible, so that you can enjoy your masterpiece!
