How do you like those 22s, any pics. Haven't quite decided what wheels or size to go with. 20s 22s with 35s or 37s. Gotta wait to see how much lift its going to end up with. Newer fenders have more room and I don't want wheels and tires to look too small. Prob need to get a temporary set to move truck around.

Dorian will take care of you, his guys are the only ones that touch my rig other than myself and Razzi (in addition to a select few forum members for other items).

Any fun upgrades while you're at it (injectors, turbo, etc), or just a basic bulletproofing?

I do like a slightly more sporty ride and I have definitely achieved it with my 5100 bilsteins and such.

Hope this helps! Those rims posted up earlier look awesome btw!

Great looking truck. Thanks for the pics.
Got mine back today. PSE Bulletproofed, PowerMax Turbo and Gearhead Tunes made a huge difference.

About damn time! Dorian and Kevin were asking if you'd gotten the lift done yet, picked up mine from them last week. Stupid up-pipes.

Following this build. Here is a pic of mine. 2005 6.0 4X4 Limited. Lots of things I want and need to do. And, I'm right here in Spring so I'm definitely interested in finding out who you guys use for things you don't tackle yourself.
