54 jimmy,

We are working on doing a complete front end tilt. I started to do the tilt hood and then changed my mind to the front end tilt. I wanted to show the frame and suspension detail at the car shows. Tilting the front end would let me be able to do this.
We are also doing a bed tilt for the same effect.

There are lots of pictures with all of these mods on the web.

Just do a search on Google and you can see what some have done.

Good luck with your build.

No limit might have a kit. They did one a few years ago and when I called about a kit he not only said no but hell no at the time but not they may be offering one.

The gent I talked to at the time said it was a royal pain in the keester to get to work right on the one that showed up in a magazine about 15 or so years ago.

They don't show one for an AD truck http://www.nolimitparts.com/products.asp?dept=1196

Just me but it seems like a lot of work to move the hood in to a posision that is in the way.
