YESSS!! it is finally done guys! everything is put back on and i must say that i love it! i love the clearance and it doesnt rub any more!! well sort of. lol i think im rubbing on my A-arms now. so im gonna see if it is somthing i can trim tomorrow. the only thing that hasnt been done yet is the metal blocks that have to be welded to the fram and bed. but im gonna do that tomorrow also. and thank god the front bumper went on with no problems. cause after i got the back bumper on, i was exhausted. lol it is much more fun to drive now that i dont have to worry about the fenders rubbing. haha

well here is a couple pics i took after it was done tonight:




and i sort of like the way the truck looks with out the brush guard on it...i dont know about that yet. i may try and put it on this weekend with some scrap metal i have in the garage. i think it is heavy duty enough to hold it, i wont be able to push anything with it anymore or get pulled by it (but thats what the tow hooks are for ) but i dont plan on getting stuck anyways

anyways let me know what ya think.

looks great man. I told you it would look better with a BL the first time you sent me a picture.

I bet that thing will perform better offroad as well, you dont have to worry about ripping the fender off now.

and everyone talking about offroading makes me sick. i wont beable to go for atleast another WEEK. maybe another 2 weeks.
