And they are ON!

[ThirteenthCurve]

woohoo, finally.....tires came in today, took the wheels in, got them mounted. went home, yanked off the running boards, put on the new wheels and tires

before...

after...

 

[Hartman]

31s?

 

[IAmTodd]

That looks great!!! Are those 31s?

 

[ThirteenthCurve]

yeah, 31s

 

[Vanquish502]

Take the plastic trim off from around the bottom of the front bumper, truck will look higher and meaner

 

[bmxking5]

Looks a million times better with the 31s/wheels and w/o those running boards.

 

[ThirteenthCurve]

Had a little time so I threw up the roof rack and strapped it on

Oh, and the nice thing...NO rub. at all.

 

[Redrig]

Looking good.

 

[96limitedX]

i kinda like the before better.

but bigger tires are allways better!

 

[stretch]

Lookin' good!

 

[Hartman]

What kind of rack is that?

 

[WhitEngineering]

Lookin' sharp! You don't have any lift do you?

 

[ThirteenthCurve]

Bauer Vehicle Gear Adventure Rack. http://www.bauergear.com/ .

no lift yet. prolly just guna put a 2" body on sometime.

 

[j602]

Do the 2" suspension instead. Almost as cheap, but increases capability, and looks hella better.

i was thinkin that, are you talking shackles and what not? i really would just stay away from shackls, aal, and what not. Cept im not sure how to get just 2" in the rear w/out shackles haha. front is easy, figure skyjacker lift coils. BL just seems somewhat more practical if im only going 2". then again...maybe im wrong.

 

[Hartman]

What is wrong with shackles? Probably the safest and easiest way to lift the rear a couple inches.

 

[UtahX]

Looks alot better.

 

[Texplorer]

Hey that looks sharp, rack looks familiar hahaha. How did you end up getting it mounted? Its coming along great.

 

[ThirteenthCurve]

haha, i used some strips of metal that my dad has left over from building on his airplane. drilled a few holes and its good to go.

IMO go with the 2" Skyjacker. It comes with an AAL for the rear, and as you said, lift coils in front. A WHOLE lot less time consuming then a BL, and like Josh said, it will increase the capabilities too. Shackles would make the rear less stiff than an AAL would and can provide more flex than an AAL, but in my case it wouldn't work b/c of the hitch I have. Definitely money well spent though.
