Looks good...but I've seen varying opinions on the way your rear shocks are on...they seem to be on upside down to me as I put mine on w/ the boot down, except I left the boots off.

Actually waskillywabbit, YOURS are upside down. Only certain shocks are properly valved to be ran upside down. You would have to check with the manufacturer on that. They could possibly leak or not provide proper dampening.


The truck looks great! Mean looking! Will you ever take it off road? Because those exhaust tips will be the first thing to get smashed!

That thing is beautiful. Nice and clean look.
Maybe your just short , but the truck looks like a fullsize with you standing next to it. Time to start saving for gears now.

That looks just like my first truck color and all (92 Ext cab 4X4 5-speed). I loved that truck dearly, and yours reminds me so much of it. Too bad it got smashed when I was rear-ended and slammed into another truck about 4 years ago. The thing is I had ordered that same lift you had on there and was waiting on it to come in when it got totaled. At least now I know what it would have looked like with it and that makes me even more sad. Heres mine after the wreck...

How is your CB antenna mounted? Got any pics? I have a 91 Ext Cab and I'm trying to figure out where to mount it. It's either going to be where the radio antenna is but on the driver's side or on the rear bumper/bed.
