Looks good Oregon! Welcome to the site. Be sure to keep us up to date on the SAS.
 






mynameisaric: it isn't too bad around corners. i don't have the gears up front yet so i havn't taken it on the trails. i don't see why it would be any different if i had 3" more suspension lift as opposed to the body lift. i am going to leave the body lift on simply for the fact of working on it. body lifts make life way easier! thanks for the compliment.

93explorer: i love the autobots transformers logo!

More pics? You have a soa how did you get the front level? Just the 4" and a TT?
 






I still don't know how to post pics apropriately - need to do some more playing around on the site (Thanks Heath for fixing my last post!) but I have plenty more pics..

My truck as it came stock (I'm the 1st owner) had a strange rake to it where the front was a good inch or 2 taller than the rear. it looked like how the toyota 4runner's "squat" sometimes.
First went on the 4" trailmaster kit, and it still had the rake.. So it was time for Soa on top of the 4" leaf pack - making it rake the other direction, haha.
When I cranked the TT way up until it became a CV eater: it leveled out pretty close, atleast within the origional 1-2", just the other direction.

With the 4" trailmaster kit I had no rub issues running 33x12.50's on a 15" wheel, even at full lock, which seems to not be the normal from what I've heard.

here's a side view and both a F&R suspension pic from the center of the truck:

100_0517.jpg

100_2208.jpg

if they don't fit, i'll just sell them and buy some 32x11.5's
 






hey tony, i love the tires ahahha hell of deal for 60 buck(a tire or for all)either way its a hell of a deal mine are 206 a piece....the x looks sweet...id cut and fit if i was you...i think you could lose the rocker trim and cut a inch fold it back. and do the same with the bumper. every time ive trimmed fenders i hit the cuts with some clear coat...or pull the trim cut and put the trim back,a little cut so you could cover up the ugly...sorry for the long paragraph just some idea's...i love your rigs man.
 






thanks for the comment! yup. 60 for all 4. bought them sight-unseen from a co-worker that couldn't even remember how much tread they had, he just wanted them out of his barn. 50/50 chance one of us would get a heck of a deal, luckily it was me! i cut the front fenders on my b2 and folded a little back, turned out real good.
 






that is awesome,i never get deals like that. instead my rig is about to get parked and await a 4.0 i think.havent decided yet.well the boss(wify)hasent decided.remember to hit the cut real litely with clear coat to stop the rust ,did you get the tires on the x?
