My 1989 2wd truck lifted

Here is my truck before the new tires. It just has a 3 inch body lift.
[IMG][/IMG]

Then here it is after I put BFG all-terrains on american racing rims on the truck. On the front I have 235/75/15 and on the back I have 31/10.5/15. I also put a 1.5 inch ball joint spacer on it. Extended shackles for the rear are soon to come from downey off-road. Oh yea, and i have it straight piped. Its loud!

And YES its a 2wd, thats how i roll.

I likey, looks good.

Some fiberglass fenders, a prorunner bar with some lights, and it's pre-run'n time!

I've always wanted to turn a 2wd into a prerunner and put "Dune Jumper" across the front window... I don't know why... it's like one of those things that I must do before I die, lol

Lose the bumper, ditch the bodylift, and put a muffler on it. My truck's straight piped, it sounds like a tractor and its obnoxiously loud, I'd be super pissed if I was behind you on a trail all day. Thats why I just bought a glasspack... Same sound, toned down. Oh, and get some BJ spacers, and chevy 63" rear springs, then you'd have a decent setup for mild prerunning... body lift might get messed up, I dunno, I don't jump my truck anymore since my body lift... Just my two cents man..
