sparky, you have a head on shot as well as the back? wanna see how those 35's look by that perspective..

 

[410Fortune]

LOL my new 33;s are almost 2" taller then my old 33's, funny they are the same tire (different wheel size but same 33" DC FC II) I lifted it 1" and its still rubbing a bit LOL 35's = trim trim trim!

410Fortune...your truck is coming along great! Im about to head over to the junk yard to see if I cant pick up some running boards Like yours....You can hardly tell it's a body lift with those on there.

 

[410Fortune]

thanks!! Thats why they are on there, to hide the frame... however I hate them, I will be removing them when I make some tube sliders this summer... I finally got a tube bender!!

Thanks alot, I love this truck so much I do not want to sell it!! funny how a set of headlights can make a huge difference in how much I like the truck, I always liked it, but not the gen II front end, then they come out with the 1 piece lights and I love it!!

I dont have any pics, right now....I will have to get some though

Yes, I did have to trim the front(kinda a hack job IMO and have not got back to cleaning it up yet)....the rear I did not, but I do rub when I am flexing but street driving I do not

 

[sparkyXplorer]

Since we shut down shop early today, I decided I would get a lil work done on the X and get some requested pictures... And a few more cause there is some snow left over from last weeks storm...

( From front.....Don't mind the driver side tire lean, I have been driving the stooper duty cause the driver side wheel bearing is going bad)

(Front passenger side)

(Back)

(Drivers Side)

(Driver side flexy, Need new rear shocks...they are being used as limiting straps right now)

(If she Ain't rubbin, She Ain't Lovin!!!)

(Couldn't keep from falling thru the snow pile once I turned around, so not all the way flexed)
