Your wheels are a little big for my tastes, but the truck still looks good.
I didn't have any problems removing my front shaft. And drilling the crossmember that was simple .I drilled a 1/4" pilot hole frist then a 1/2".I can't believe you haven't done anything to your front driveshaft. Yeah, I mostly hear negative thing about the wheels from old folks!

Ive only had the lift on for 3 weeks or so and havent used 4x4 yet, and dont plan to until i get the driveshaft re-balanced. We tried for 2 hours to get it off and the bolts just wouldn't turn on the transfer-case. talk about a PITA.

Will be finishing soon though.

Yeah i know. James jsut tried to do a 1/2" hole right away and the burr grabbed and the drill smacked him in the face. Plus it was like 10pm we both had work the next days so we said F-it we'll finish later. The driveshaft was the main issue.
