Mixed opinions.

Most of it screams mall crawler but there are some pretty sweet mods.

Overall a good looking truck

I agree with Kris. All the shocks and the bling gives it a mall crawler feel. but it looks like a nice truck and you've gone the proper steps to make it a real truck with the 1 ton running gear. Get it muddy and then post back!

The more I look at it the more I like the overall truck.

I like the radius arms and the gusseted 60. For my taste its too much lift for the tire size and since you swapped in the axle you shouldve moved it forward an inch or so.

What are the specs on your cam to have a 3200stall?

Talking

hey kris,
comp cams #34-239-4 INT .554/270 EX .574/278
comp cams springs #924-16
ferrera stainless valves (3 angle)
proform rockers
port & polished c9ve heads (just got back on engine)
forged lower with 10.5:1


yeh i know its mall crawler for now----here in mich. i take the truck to the sand dunes---i will try to get pics off a video of it 5-6 foot in the air off the top of dunes

plus im moving to fl real soon so im watching the money----but plan for 42" boggers since i dont think the 37 iroks are the best choice for mud

If youre going to be in FL in August you should come to mud fest. I will have to see the thing muddy for it to get my approval.

Thats a real good cam. One step above my current one and about 3 below the one Im waiting for in the mail

If I were you Id wait on the 42" SXs. There is no 42" bogger. You deffinately have the axles gear and engine to handle them.

Nice suspension and driveline ... Needs some rubber with bite to them instead of road tires ...


Ditto the others ... needs some sod ...
