Body lift installed/wheels, tires, bilsteins

Hey, finally got my lift on, took us Sunday and most of Mon' to get everything done but it came out alright. 3" PA body lift, MT Baja ATZ's, new Bilsteins, 18x10" MB motoring Rockers, C/F tails also. Got every thing including tires off ebay for less than $1000! Ebay is awesome. Here is the link...

You'll also see my other project in there, my old high school truck, 1985 solid axle Toyota 4x4.

Thanx man, did you use all the parts when you put your body lift on? I got stuff that I didn't use and I'm wondering do I even need to? The transmission cable bracket and fuel filler hose are two of them? I filled up with gas today and didn't have any problems so I guess it's alright. Any help would be appreciated. That trans' cable bracket is the one I'm really wondering about.

The tires were used but have a lot of life left in them (33x13.50's), they were worn evenly and nobody bidded on the auction, I put a bid in of $800 thinking somebody was going to wait until the last second to bid and get them but nobody did. They had a lot of life left on them. The seller was pissed too, both of us thought they were sell for a lot more. The wheels were displays but that didn't bother me any. Every thing else was brand new. Here are a couple of the auctions that I won on ebay, check that price out on the tires I got!!!
