Just read the whole thread quite the change. Love the look. What did you end using to lift it. I know the rear is 3/4 ton springs. Front is 3/4 tbars. Anything else

looks good and i love the stance of your rig!
Thanks man. I appreciate that a lot
Looks great!!! But how long before that rear cover turns black?
Thank you sir! Haha hopefully it will stay white for a while. If not it's just some white tractor spray paint so it'll be an easy touch up when needed

Thanks man! I honestly can't believe how far she's come. In the rear I have 3/4 ton leaf springs and a 4" Rough Country block. In the front it's just a Rough Country lift cranked to probably about 5 1/2 maybe 6". The 3/4 ton torsion bars didn't really do anything for the lift but the did help my front end ride a million times better. I don't know if it was just the weight of the front bumper or what but it was extremely bouncy when I first lifted it and they corrected that

Fly wheel went bad on me two days ago and ended up costing me about $450 in parts and labor. Could have been way worse but when your in college anything is a lot haha

The same goes for owning a business! I'm not in college but I'm still on the ramen noodle diet.

The struggle is real haha. Hopefully she can go a while without costing me some more money and I can catch up a little bit. The ramen diet is never any fun!

Another random pic. Water pump also went bad on me so I'll be fixing that tomorrow after my class. I swear when it rains it pours with this thing
