You live in a college town right? You should be able to throw a rock in any random direction and hit a girl with it...

i dunno! it seems finding someone to swap you suspensions and a little cash your way is the way to go on this one but what do i know. youre gonna spend way more buying a different truck and then getting it all set up like you want it. and i wouldnt list how much you originally paid for the truck on ebay. all the aftermarket stuff most people think of as a you dont get your money back for that kinda thing so listing your original purchase price will only get people to lowball you i think.....

I don't know if I'm nuts or not, wife says the first but when you joined us here on FTE Philip, you sig was pretty basic, lift, so on so on. Did you build your truck pretty fast here, didn't you??

just to big man, im tired of jumpin in and out of it and i came to my senses and realized i have way more stuff in life to spend my money on then tires and parts becuase my truck is jacked up.
ide rather just have a stocker with tons of mods and a BB turbo and stuff. i would be spending about 1200 on tires every like 30k. it woudl get way out of hand.

IMO, that is a horrible ebay ad. If you truly want to sell that truck you've got to change that ad. First of all, put the VIN in there. Take a bunch of pictures, host them on photobucket or wherever you like and enter in their HTML code into the ad you type. That way you'll have an unlimited number of pictures. Lose all the prices next to your mods. Lose the list of mods and type a nice description of the truck. What color is the interior? Cloth, leather? Put some effort forth into the ad and paint a pretty picture of the truck, tell a story, sell your truck in your ad. $0.02.

nah i dont. the cab was too rotted so i had to cut out the part that u mount the steps to, and the frame ones i would hve to custom make which isnt a problem, but i would need to invest some cash if i wanted to do it right.

Just figure out to stick some steps on it. Even a stock leveled truck without steps SUCKS to get into. A 6" lift with stock steps is easy to get into.
Butl, there are several sets of holes under there for different combos of steps. Just find one on craigslist for a 100 bucks and stick it on there. Heck just weld the thing on there... it will be 10x better then without them..

Find someone with a stock truck that wants a lift, swap springs, track bar, shocks, wheels and tires, whatever else you have changed and keep the truck. You'll kick yourself in the arsenal if you sell it just to get rid of the lift.
