I love the way that looks!!!
I do have a question. How far if any do the tires and wheels stick out of the fender wells?
Looks Great

Thanks everyone for the compliments.
Cheyenne super, the tires stick out just a tad maybe about 3/4 of an inch but not enough to throw rocks or mud too bad. ![]() ![]() |

The drop is 3 inches front/ 4 inches back with drop blocks and longer u-bolts and short springs in front. The tires stick out a little almost an inch.
I will take some front pics tomorrow and post them ![]() |

Yeah, some 20's would look killer I think. But the divorce would be much more expensive lol!! Hell, I can't even get my old lady to let me spend 100 bucks for an a/c compressor!
