Like the thread says, here it is. It was getting dark, so I will have to get some better ones, but this works for now.

That looks great! Awesome job bro. How do you like your toyos? I love mine, mine are 33x 12.5 though. How is your ride with that lift? Stiff?

Well, the ride was what many would say was pretty stiff to start with on this truck. It really rides about the same now. Personally I think its fine, but my business partner hates it. Though his little 1/2 ton chevy can't make it in the same spots and I always have to pull the trailer or carry the load -- actually, now that I say that, his deal doesnt seem so bad. :lol:

Thanks guys! I am going to add a pace-edwards bedlocker next week, but after that I am not sure what else I could even do too it. Though the 2008 Step tailgate is calling to me... and I do have a set of the 08 taillights here too (not installed) so I may go for it.

For the interior, I have gone with the 08 console, but am considering switching out the rear bench and going to quad captain's chairs.

Nice truck! I really wish I had gone with a 6" lift. I'd like to go 37s next but I don't think there's quite enough room with the 4" lift.

You can Fit 40" tires with your 4" lift

You don't need to do the 6" lift, unless you're going to do the Dynatrac Combo with High Steer. A 4" lift will fit 40" tires with no issues whatsoever.

One simple mod.... Bushwacker Cut out flares. Heck, you can fit 37" tires with no lift at all.

Considering your choice in front bumper... Cut outs are an obvious choice. My Moab 2007 gallery shows what the 4" with cutouts will look like - My truck is even white! Based on your bumper, you would likely paint the cutouts white to match.

Give it some thought, depending on where you are headed, the extra height can be a detriment to performance

What gears do you have? - does the V10 do well with those tires.

I have the 4.10's now, prob will go to 4.88's. It works fine as it is, but I like the low gears performance better. I even run 4.56's on my Tahoe if that tells you anything.

Dunno, diesel envy? :P Actually I really liked them and there are not a lot of them in my area so I can look a bit unique too.

I figured as such. I have the 4:30's in mine and am looking to go the 35" like the Dick Cepek F/C 305.70.18 or the Toyo Open Country 285.75.18. I guess should not have a bit of a prob then

Thanks alot for responding and I really dig your truck BTW!!!
