Finally put my lift on
#21
that thing looks awesome. I was gonna go for more of a lift so i could fit some 33x12.50, but decided that would be a little much for a poor college student to drive around everyday. When i have more funds, or a second car, i will probably do a lot more to my truck, but sweet truck gary, thanks for sharing

My friends buddy is the head honcho at the store. So I get like penny over cost.
BUT, I will let you in on a secret.
You can go into lordco, open up a "cash only" account. This costs nothing. They then give you UP to a %30 discount on everything you buy. The only thing you cannot do with this account, is pay later. You must pay full before you leave. But hell, you're used to that eh?
I also have a few friends that are working there
Card? Ha, never make me or anyone I know show a card. I have given them the wrong account number before and they still gave me their discount...

No problem! Everyone should try it.. driving a locked truck is so much fun! Donuts are so much fun now So it being able to crawl over stuff while one tire is hanging a foot off the ground.

Not at all. Trust me, I have friends that are currently working there. This works. The only stipulation in terms of the account, is that you cannot get billed later. As long as they know you are paying in full before you leave with your parts, you get a discount. Up to %30 depending what you buy.

I didn't read all the replies, so this may have been covered, but if you like the Aussie, whick you will, you can always get a 4cyl 3rd and use that in place of the v-6 third. They are both strong enough, especially for 33s.

Looks good. Looks even better with the bikes in the back. I have to use a trailer to tow my toys. One of these days I'll get myself a pickup.
BTW, you'll love the lockright. Just do it.

wabbit said something about a truck I think it is that six foot bed that never has to be maid that truck looks great dude now wheel it till the wheels fall off then fix it and start all over again.

ill probably end up ordering a lockright in the next week. I just got paid today, and i booked some side work for this weekend.
Yea, its real nice to have a pickup to haul mine and the girlfriends bike. Its just a pain to try to load all of the other equipment and make it stay in place since the tailgate has to be down to fit my bike in
And trust me mike, i will be wheeling this thing till it dies
