Ol'Rover · 06-24-2011, 04:55 PM

6" on 35's would look great on that truck!

loudnlifted88 · 06-25-2011, 10:33 PM

its still a toss up but on the other hand i made a home made back rack its not done yet tho

benoit454 · 06-27-2011, 12:37 AM

everybody does 6 inch and 35's I'd go bigger.

How you gonna lift it or get bigger tires when you were complaining about the 33's being bald and not cheap? a lift is more then tires, and then you gotta have tires too.

Same reason mines not lifted. I can't afford tires much less the lift.

i traded a bunch of parts for a parts truck with a 6 inch pro comp lift a 3 inch body lift and 38's the cab is junk and there was no body and i had to cut the frame.

the last pic is of the truck on my trailer after i got it home

benoit454 · 06-28-2011, 07:09 PM

awesome deal man, gonna keep the body lift or sell it? or the 6 inch either one lol. I want a lift for mine big time, body lift, susp. lift or both.

loudnlifted88 · 06-28-2011, 11:11 PM

yeah in part of the deal the kid wanted a lawn mower and my buddy who had a 94 ext cab just like mine owned one so i trade the body lift and a set of manifolds for the lawn mower because i personally dont care for body lifts and he wanted it and needed a set of manifolds

benoit454 · 06-28-2011, 11:18 PM

I hear ya, I don't mind body lifts at all I'd run one for sure.

loudnlifted88 · 06-28-2011, 11:19 PM

as for the 6 inch suspension i going to make my old plow truck into a nice lifted truck that i can go play with

loudnlifted88 · 06-30-2011, 04:17 PM

picked up some headlights today at the local junk yard for 75 bucks there out of a gmc grille so the corners dont fit but i still like them

bw4sale · 07-16-2011, 06:17 PM

Looking good. Couldn't help but notice that you're missing the silver trim pieces around your door handles. I just took a set off of a parts truck and am about to list them in the parts section if you're interested.

loudnlifted88 · 07-29-2011, 10:48 PM

ditched the 17s for some 16s... traded a buddy and then went out a bought some 285 75 16 kelly safari tsr's heres some pics
