Definitely did the exterior appearance some favors, and my old front right tire had a small hole that was too close to the sidewall to be patched so it needed air every few days. Glad to be done with that.

What gears does your truck have? I have 3.73's and I did notice a decrease in acceleration but it wasn't a huge change. I hardly ever take the truck above 3000 RPMs so it really doesn't affect me much anyways.

Love it!!

Thanks! I don't really want to mess with the T-bars so I'll be shaving a little off the front bumper and painting it to match my rear bumper. It barely rubs at all and only when at full lock and the suspension is compressing at the same time, but I'd rather it not rub at all (they weren't cheap after all! :lol:)

Those look great, I assume the rims have a little more off set than stock causing the rub against the bumper?

I may just be content ditching my blocks and getting a set of 285 and cranking down as much as I can with some bumper trimming. That looks so good. :banghead:

Not sure, could just be the tire size. My wheels have 4.5" BS, 0mm offset, and are 8" wide.

Do it :deal: This is as big as I need to go until I get another vehicle. Then it can become more of a project and finally get a lift

I like the garland and lights on your roof rack.

Thanks, had to show my Christmas spirit :lol:
