you shouldn't have to do much... get tires with less sidewall and throw in the ART kit... i think it'd look sharp, especially with your paint.

I like it bagged but without the side skirts. Stripe is good to though it needs to be longer. Are you doing any stripes on the top? I have been thinking of doing double white stripes on the top of my red truck.

thats a nice floor mat ya got yourself there. haha... if you're not going to be hauling stuff, i would stick with that drop. if you got the flip, do you have the lift hangers?

I can't remember your front drop, but maybe switch over to a combo, DJM drop arms and a drop spring (ie - DJM 2" drop arm and 2" drop coil to get up to a 4" front drop)

Haha are u saying I need to lower the front to match the back... i dont think i could do that, my brush gaurd/oil pan is way too low, im thinkin about just droping another $500 for the belltech 2/3 drop and buying new tie rods...what kit do u have again?? I have little lifting shackls.. they dont do much, i never though id be saying this but i do need to lift this thing... did u install ur shocks and rear kit your self?????

tire size?

Do any of you guys have your 97-03 truck bagged?

I want to get some 285/60R-18 BFG g-Force T/A KDW-2, but I'm in the process of saving for and learning to design my own rear susp. and I want the tires to be able to tuck in the fenders, but I'm worried about clearances.

Thanks for the help, I'll post pics of mine once the body work is finished.

Yea that picture is taken with the gas tank on empty, i just put 10 gallons in her yesterday which means there is probly about 12 gallons in the tank meaning that there is an additional 70 pounds back there oposed to the picture above, its way too low and out of the question for carrying a load or towing which is what trucks are for. Im either gunna order the GF 2/3 kit or just order the belltech rear 3in drop leaf spring which, buts that like $400 for 2 so id rather just buy the GF 2/3 kit and get a better performance ride.
