its what I expected...a lot stiffer and more responsive....but on long trips I could use some softness...but whatever, I rarely drive it further than 2 hours in a shot. Are those 22s a bit ruff?

no they arent to bad at all, most people are scared to run that big of a wheel because of ride issues but it isnt much worse at all, only thing that seems to suffer a little is the braking, i will be upgrading that next

did you have pinion issues after lowering?

i noticed the same thing with my 22's.. the ride didnt change much at all.. MAYBE a little stiffer on some bumps.. but thats probably just me being a little paranoid about damaging a rim..

not that I know of, after reading all the recent threads I may be checking it out soon. I need to get everything aligned anyhow so I'm going to have it checked out. Maybe put some traction bars on while I'm at it.

anyone want to donate a stock airbox to me

Just paint your airbox black or silver and do your own ram air to the bottom of the airbox, no need to get another.

You asked for honest opinions, so here goes. Don't like the rims. Guess I'm not into the giant rim scene. But otherwise your truck looks great. Really like the stance.
