Had some complications with the rear gears. Should have some pics by next Friday. The kit was pretty straight forward, just time consuming. Did the add a leaf, rear blocks, and all the front we could do with the front axle out. Got about an hour and a half left after the gear change is completed...

Think I got this pic thing figured out finally...lol









Well what do you think?

I was really suprised with the performance after adding the 4.88's the lift and the rims and tires, the truck actually pulled my airboat better than it did with 3.73's and 33's.
I checked the rpms last night at 70mph its only running 2100rpms. With the overdrive turned off dragging the boat down the Inerstate at 70mph it turns 3000rpms. Driving nicely I have reached 15.5 mpg, but usually average around 13.5 mpg. Not much different than it was before...

These are the Mazzi Hulk's. They are 22x10's.

Thanks for the responses also... I love the way it turned out. I've had a ton of big trucks, but this one is my favorite by far.

I have the same wheel/tire setup...only thing I dont like is the Mazzi's have a really cheap chrome finish that you will find out soon enough, they pit like crazy
