I like it. Do you have a cb in it yet or just the whip? I have been trying to figure out how I wanted to set one up in my truck. The truck looks good but agreeing with Tylus some different rims then the XL ones really do sharpen the truck up.

obx whats the specs on ur susp? I like the stance of your truck. And i only have the whip for now. My cobra took a crap on me. The only thing about a 8ft whip is when u go through the city around here it hits every dang tree.

I have the 2 1/2" AutoSpring leveling kit in the front and their 3" block in the back(It replaces the factory 1 5/8" block). It came up out like I wanted. It is just slightly butt high but when I put a 4 wheeler in the back or tow a trailer it levels out perfect and I don't have to worry about it going nose high.

He does not have the blocks listed right now but it says he still sells them.

I agree with ya there. I got a 8ft one also on my 93 F150. It stays at a house we got in the mountains and I can't drive 10 feet without the tennis ball bouncing of the back of the cab.
