Not really man, its pretty much where I want it right now. I got keep it a daily driver so i can drive back and forth to school... 400 miles...I need to try to keep MPG relatively good!! Ive done everything I want to. Maybe when I graduate in 2 years, i can lift it more and put 33 on it and turn it into a trail rig.... B/c when I grad., i want to get an expedition, lift it, and put 35's on it!!

Thanks for the compliments guys!!

Matt NIIICE1!!!! I got the same car, but mine is essentially stock, your additions look great. I just wanted to ask you about your tires. I put the same BFGoodrich A/Ts on my truck and it makes my alignment feel wack. I've had them for about 12,000 miles and they've been rotated and re-balanced 3 times and the alignment done 3 times and it still pulls pretty hard. The tire guy says that happens a lot with A/T tires. It just doesn't sound right to me. Just wanted to find out if u were having any similar problems or if the guy is BSing me.
BTW aside from the pulling these tires are great, the go through anything and they also give the truck a good luck

You have to make sure when you get an alignment, they adjust the camber. Aftermarket "adjusters" have to be installed to fix the toe angle. I have had no problems with mine. Good Luck!!

Your truck makes me nostalgic Matt! My first X was a white 97 with blue interior. In fact yours is the only other one I’ve seen with that interior. Beautiful truck man!
