Looks like you could use some 0 rate addaleafs. Get that front out farther and add a little height. Rear could use em too.

the wheels are centered in the well. Just when you turn the tire "kicks" out and will hit. So I had to do some trimming. If Im gonna add lift ill just use a different springin front, and drop the rear hangers a little. or maybe a small body lift?


I dont think Im going to use those weld wheels after all lol. I was planning on using the eagle alloys before I even had the 44's anyways. kinda scary to think of having a wheel fly apart. . come to think of it, I think one of those crushers are bent . . hmmm . .

I have seen 44" Jimmy Dean boggers spun to 140mph of forward motion - cant tell you how much wheel speed.


I think you'll be fine turbo.

well i've driven at 100mph with 40's, so i think you'll be fine. the worst was unbalanced 38''groundhawgs at 120. more like aiming than steering. kids, don't try this without at least a 0.16 bac, as it will scare the hell out of you sober

i've been a drunk since way before i could drive. i wouldn't do that chit with a passenger, or anywhere that actually had regular traffic. i am the safest dangerous driver you will ever meet. i have no accidents on my fault. and btw i don't drink and drive anymore, but if i did i would still challenge anyone on here to a drunken rally race in lifted trucks. i bet good money i would whoop some @$$
