I think that's a 6" suspension, 3" body, and about 37's. Notice you can see a gap in the rear wheel well.

That's Gino's truck (Sal's friend), it's on 38's and 20's, not 37's and yes a 3" body, absolutely. I wanted to do his lightbar identically. Thanks though.

So, basically A LOT lighter than the Nitto Mud Grapplers! 
Hell, I'll probally be able to run 37 Toyo Open Country M/Ts without even re-gearing if they come out to be about the same weight as my current 35" Nitto Mud Grapplers.

Hey josiah, Gonna look sick
If you get in a bind and need some help, get a hold of me, I may be able to run over there and give you a hand. Cant wait to see it done.

We should hook up sometime (possibly this weekend as if all goes well a couple buddy's and I are going to La Grange). You're welcome to come, it would make for some neat footage (2 black lifted F-150's).

Plus, don't the Toyo Open Country M/Ts pull damn good?

It has horrible MPG. It has horrible turn radius. It had horrible tailgate height. It has impossible width. It has impossible height. The ONLY place that truck fits is in the show crowd. That POS wouldn’t make it 1/8 the way to my hunting cabin. Looks incredible but just cant get it done…JOKE TRUCK.
Doubt me? PM me and I’ll give you a map…

After i get back from sighting in my newest rifle tomorrow I'll check back in on this. I expect nothing more than i've seen so far and I love seeing the options people throw down. Problem is at some point their truck stops becoming a truck and becomes a jock strap.
