I dont right now (out of the country) but i'll be back home today and i can get some and put somemore up. anything in particular you'd like to see? The truck rides great w/ the suspension, and i dont have any rubbing issues w/ the 275/70/17 tires.

General rule of thumb.... Fabtech wont work with stock rims AND big ole tires. But it will work with stock rims and tires close to stock size (or at least width) You can't run big ole muds (generally) but you can drive it back home with your stockers! Plus a shop will tell you "NO" because of liability reasons. If they say yes, and somehow it messes something up, they don't want you to come back with a lawyer Trust me, I have to turn away plenty of business just because of liability reasons! we are living in a "Law Suit" happy world! Frickin rediculous!

Nooq: I love the truck!! Pretty sure its been said before tho... 2 quick questions: Which exhaust do you have? Is it dual ? And how are those IROCK holding up? You got the radials right? Thanks... and this doobie is to your truck

Thank you. The exhaust is a true dual 2.5 Pipe setup w/ 2 inline Flowmaster Super 40's & 5" tips angled out the rear quarterpanels. look at my gallery for some pics.

Yes i do have the irok radials, they are holding up suprisingly well for being used onroad. they are loud, but give a distinct hum, a swamper hum. i would definitely recommend them. when burning out with them though its another story, I am not sure about all other mud tires, but since these are soft they f__ken sling soft rubber chunks everywhere down the side of the truck and in the wheel wells. Had to use goo gone to get everything gone. Its made a mess...i will never light them up again, thats for sure.

YES... I use mine at least once a month. But its starting to be wheeling season (come on rain! come on snow!) so I will bump it up to twice a month. That doesn't count all the little side roads and little adventure near home i go on. I will try and tow my Samurai with me to do the hard wheeling by the 150 still plays around! Right now sami is outta commision (body off... long travel suspension going on) so my Ford is my only toy!
