Thank you. As soon as it warms up some and i have time to really detail it Ill get pics up with the '08 mirrors, custom light bar on the front with 4 hella's and various other mods. I want to take the step bars off it but Im a fat boy so cant, plus my wife struggles to get in it as it is LOL

That is a sweet looking truck.. I just got a question for you about the front end, I see in your sig that it's a 03 but it looks like you got an 05-07 bumper/grill and head lights. was wondering if that all just bolts right up? I've read that you have to trim and head lights and the bottom of the grill but since it looks like you have the newer bumper do you not have to do that???

Jimmy, love the stance on your truck.
Ideally I would love to go up to 14" of lift wuth 40s on the 20s I have now.
I completely understand how you feel with the comments. I get them myself in person. It seems that some people do not understand that you simply love the look of a lifted truck with big tires. It seems as though they also dont understand how much money is tied up into it, an that money is hard to come by, and it is your pride and joy, that you busted your *** for. I myself, am 22 yrs old, I too have a daily driver, and I dont even drive my truck in the rain, it doesnt get driven at all in the new england weathers out here in NY state because of all the salt. Anyways, keep enjoying your truck, and be proud of it, and remember what I tell my buddies and others in person. I tell them that my truck is like my antique car, It gets the treatment a 65 yr old would give his immaculate 50 yr old antique car.
That is a good looking truck man. It has a good look. The lift really compliments the supercrew look. I like the pic pulled up to the rice burner.
High Heels on my truck or on my girl ROCK!
Here is my gay over chromed high heel wearing bitch now......

You will notice two different sets of wheels, I bought new XD Revolvers this past spring, because the other motto metal 951s I bought, were starting to peel. By the way the truck is an 04 with just under 8" of lift with 37x13.50 toyo M/ts with like mentioned 20x10 XD Series Revolvers.

The entire front end is a Harley Davidson Edition from a '06. When you move the entire front end, it all just bolts right up. No trimming required on mine. Not sure you would have to if you kept OEM bumper??? One of these guys will know though. Thanks for the compliment. She is my baby.
I'm going to have to keep my eye open for one of those front ends I like that look alot. where did you get the front end from???

I have an 04 with a 10 in Pro comp lift on 37's with 22x 14 in XD Diesel's. I just bought it and some of my friends think I'm nuts. Others love it. People take pictures of it everywhere I go.(kind of annoying) To each his own I guess. I love it... If you want to trade to something smaller let me know your truck is sick.
I would post pics but the forum wont let attach photos.

Nice trucks, ALL of you, but JST. I really want to know who made the front end replacement you have, that is one of the best looking ones I have seen.

I gotta ask.... how DO you get in to something like that?? I've never been in one that tall, so I'm guessing you "walk" up the tire? I'd love to see a pic series showing your technique. Not to bag on you at all, but like I said, I've never been in one that big! Heck, my 99 F250 4x4 with a leveled front sits almost 1' taller than most chebbies! That thing.... WOW!!
Sweet looking rig though.

Hey JST,
Do you have any issues with tire rub on the front springs? I have a "minor" issue with it. It is tollerable for sure but, just wondering if you have the same. I have 2" spacers to spread em out a little and that helps.

It's actually not too terrible to get into. It is kind of a hike the leg up into the cab then pull on the Oh S#!T handle to climb up in. I am 6'1" though and if I were any shorter it would definitely be a little tougher. I just have not found the right steps for it yet. The AMP's don't cover the pinch welds and I want them to. They make covers for the pinch weld that will work with the AMP steps, just not completely sold on them dropping down enough to do any good. Thanks for the WOW!
