Talking Finally Drove My Lifted Truck!

Okay so I got home today and my dad wasn't here so I waited waited for what seem like forever and finally I hear the rumble of the engine coming up the hill. It looks good. I wish it were higher i guess I can always throw a body lift on , coilovers, and a add a leaf. But it will do for right now. The truck doesn't really feel sluggish **supposibly**(sp) it will speed up as the gears wear in. Just in case I bought the edge to play it safe. My dad got some more pipe added on to my glasspacks so I have a little more pressure and as soon as I recoupe I am going to go with a performance exhaust. The 37's get REAL close but don't rub. I am gonna go hobble out there and get some more pictures. Thanks for all the help everyone!

looks good. Im sure you will feel an improvement with the edge . As far as making it higher you can get a body lift, front coilovers, add-aleaf, rear blocks, rear shocks, or a front spacer.

What took you so long to get back to your truck? If I wasn't in grad school I would surely get gears and 37s and have my truck like yours.

I had a motorcycle accident the weekend that my friend and i were doing the lift and my parents found out that I had a bike I had to go to a med clinic it was a big mess. So I had to take my dad's suburban back while he finished the gears.

Patshea,
Let the guy shine in his own post Also Etrivino didn't you get your tires from a discount place? If so could you post that web address. I'm thinking about switching to mudders.
