How cose to maxxed out are your coilovers (how many inches left to go)? Second, can you measure your tires from tip to tip in diameter?

Pics should be tomorow guys, said that ages ago but things come up as josiah knows, u will be amazed at how good this truck looks.

This thread is now reaching ludicrous speed! So where are those pics then man? Hard to believe all this talk and nothing to back it up with but then again alot of us have seen it before.

I agree....but, wheel size has a big part in the equation as well. He mentioned a 38/15.50 tire (on what, a 20x10 wheel?)...no doubt thats gonna rub! A 37/13.50 (w/ 6" sus & 3" body) can still probably rub at full lock hitting a decent bump.

I doubt this will ever happen.

If I payed someone to install a lift on my truck and a week later they still havent finished it, I would be really pissed.

Im not holdin my breath for pics

The guy clearly has mental issues. Gosh just the fact that i'm posting is adding fuel to his fire. He should be banned.
