I agree with everyone else on this....you have a great looking truck, but that radio is just a place waitin' on a knee to happen.

got me some goodies, brand new McGaughys spindles and slightly used springs, got a great deal on them! Time to rebuild the front end! Doing new pitman arm, tierods, all bushings brakes and rotors, and painting everything, going to be a long day, but worth it!

You gonna flip the rear then too? Cant wait to see it dropped. It will really look good low over the 338s.

texasfunk · 05-26-2010, 12:19 AM

yes sir! But I think the flip is going to drop it a lot from what its currently at..may adjust, I'm afraid the front wheels are gunna rub turning too, approx drop is going to be 5-6 inches frm stock..and tires up front are 275/50/20's, but I agree, will look sick with these wheels!

Agreed!

truck looks sick, interior turned out really nice too! but your truck needs to be more intimate with the asphalt.
