That looks GOOD!!! I want one...so bad...Question though, doesn't look like you trimmed you valence any, does it rub? I was told that 35" can fit if you trim the valence. Also, do you know the backspacing on your rims? I'm curious to see how much you can get away with. And one more q., what did you do in the back? Blocks + add a leaf? How bad is the ride? Thanks.

Well I went with Ryan(Blown150) to have it done. All I can say is it is really nice.. Looks awesome, rides better than stock. Best of all was the service at PG is 2nd to none.

r0land the back spacing on the rims is 3 and 5/8ths. They only had to trim the rubber/plastic on the bumper a little, but not that much.

Awesome look!!! I've read a lot of good things about PG, everything indicates them to be a first class operation. It's ashame they don't open a second shop, HERE.

The RCD kit is awesome, I think I made a wise choice. While I was at PG two guys came in w/ Fabtech kits that were having problems which I hear can be common in some cases. The height of the car is perfect with the 6" lift and 35`s. Not too big, just right. This weekend I`ll be installing my billet grill w/ Bill`s help and in a week or so I`ll have a Gibson Super truck in my greasy palms =)

Thanks for the complimemts!
Ryan

Cool

Very nice looking truck! I have been looking at the RCD kits recently, your truck is a 4X2, right? Also, is the RCD kit a 6" SPINDLE only? If so, that would be great because I dont want to have to add new coils too. If you dont mind, how much did the kit cost?

Thanks,
Chris
