After a huge scare involving my insurance company, and them wanting to write off my truck, I'm back once again. Just a minor upgrade this time however, I decided the 31's on it were looking a bit too small for my liking. The only logical thing I could think to do was to get the sledgehammer and grinder out to fit the biggest tires I could under the stock suspension and body mounts. After several hours with a 10 lb sledgehammer, several grinding discs and a couple buddies, the 35's fit nicely inside. Here's some pictures of the 35's on it:
Then, during all my fun and games, my passenger side front axle decided to grenade itself. Better add a couple more things to "my list of things to do/fix."
-P/S axle.
-Rear u-joints
-All four shocks.
-P/S front corner light.
-Somehow create a spare tire holder than can support a 35" BFG M/T.
-Somewhere to hold my Hi-lift jack.
-More recovery points. I only have one up front, and two out back, it's kind of a nuisance.
