I see that you have BFG 33x12.5x15's on it, do you have any lift on it too? or is it factory height suspension?
Thanks for the compliment. It really is a great truck. A friend of mine keeps trying to get me to paint it. I told him he's crazy. I love the patina it has. The front has 2" lift springs and a 1" block. The rear has a 3" lift block. ( they were 4" but I machined them down to 3")
