i gotta take it back to the body shop at some point, he got all the jams and under the fenders, didnt do under the hood and forgot a gas cap lol. for the most part it was a pretty good job, all the body work and all it came out to about 2500 bucks

thats a good price. truck looks pretty straight. as long as there isn't gobs of body filler under there your good and it looks like your truck was pretty straight to start with. did he get between the bed and cab as well???

there was only 2 goobers that really needed attention, i came by and looked at it before it went to paint, theres some filler but its not that bad, still some little dings here and there, but i wasnt going to pay to have the whole truck blocked, that wouldve cost a fortune lol. he got in as far as his gun would let him, didnt take the bed off, but you cant see that anyways

thank you!! man i totally underestimated the turnout, it blows me away what that did for it. i'm not totally finished with the suspension though, i need either a drop bracket for the carrier bearing, or a one peice driveshaft, steering stabilizer and some traction bars, the axle wrap is pretty nasty. might do some dual shocks up front, i dunno. just the beginning of this project!!

well if its a tuff country, do they offer springs for the back?
i have springs in the back for my lift, no lift blocks. i still get some pretty bad axle wrap. iv been wanting to make traction bars but havent got around to it. how long do you guys think they need to be with a 6 inch lift and all? seems as though they would need to be a decent length
