Re: project teacher

Looks like you might have to clearance the bedside a little. Something similar to this.

Re: project teacher

I had the same problem since I set my truck up for a 4/6 drop and later changed to bags. I ended up going with a 275/35 which eliminated my clearance issue

Thanks for the info, didn't think of that! Looks like if I go to 275/40 I can save an inch.

Guess if I don't go that route, I know somebody with some nice intros

Re: project teacher

GK and Kyle discuss how Kyle came up with the name "Laid Back Recreations"



Fitting the body and frame...




Black seems to be pretty popular around LBR...

Re: project teacher

On the way home yesterday stopped and grabbed some lunch, looked out the window and I had a stranger checking her out

Lived in the same house for seven years, while unloading met two neighbors that just had to stop!

Re: project teacher

It's amazing, shiny paint on old cars brings 'em out of the woodwork! My neighbors have all become unwitting co-conspirators to my shenanigans.

Damn, that thing's gorgeous.
