Those are 18's on there? For some reason they look smaller then that to me in the picture. They sure look good though.
Im usually not one for that much of a lower job, but your truck looks really great man. Did you buy a kit to drop it 3 and 5?

The axle flip is super easy. Took me and a friend about 2 hrs to install it start to finish on my 90 F150. I've never done the drop beams, but plan to soon.
