You and me both!! The bed is at the painter right now. After years of having slightly too large tires rubbing, the inner bedside paint was bubbling and looking pretty bad. He's adding some wheel tubs for better tire clearance and touching up the paint. TCI says that an 18x11 with 315/30/18 tires will fit with this suspension, so eventual future plans will include new wheels. Also, there's no engine or fluids in it, right now either.

Oh, very envious as well. It is going to be some time before I can get mine back on the road again!  Hopefully you will be enjoying yours very soon. |
I'm hoping to have it back up and running in a couple weeks. I'd say the handling is going to be night and day difference judging by the fact the coilovers are much more stiff than the coil springs from before. I weigh close to 300 lbs, and when I stand on the back of the frame, it doesn't move much at all. When i would stand on it before, it would drop about 3/4-1".
