Yeah, here's the look I'm going for. I really don't want the huge tire look. I think this looks perfect. Always been one of my favorite trucks on the site.


And brad, I hadn't really thought about 4.30s, but will look into that. I just assumed 4.10s were the right match for those tires
Thanks for the info.

Your truck is going to look awesome with that set-up. Does the RCD include traction bars?

No problem man. Its just what I would do.

Yeah I would've kept the front spacers if I hadn't busted a shock and the ride wouldn't have been so harsh. Then I put the shackles on, decided I didn't really like the look, so I'm currently back to stock height
Looks like I'll have a few things for sale soon
