I did because I plow and the front sags with it on and to be safe I added the lift to clear the 31's.

Im going to blame the guy who mounted and balanced them, he told me one had more weight then the other and put it on the rear and put the least amount on the front so that why they don't match. Funny thing is I just noticed it after I took the pictures....

With the backwards directional rim in the in the back like that, won't you have 5 reverse speeds and only one forward? I'd tow it back to the guy who did it and ask for them to fix it.



How are you liking those General Grabber AT2s?

So far I'm really liking the General Grabber AT2s slight hum at highway speed but that's it. But Im really wanting to try them in the snow and we have none now it starting to get warmer .....

Got the back windows tinted 20% with a eyebrow at 5% and changed the tires/rims so they are going correct direction

More bounce in the back (bed is empty) little stiff, as for handling its fine nice and smooth. Over all ride in much improved over stock but upgrading over warn out OEM should be better right ?

Thats a clean ride...especially for Illinois. Did you add the fender flairs? Paint them to match and it will look perfect.

Love the new tinted windows. Ive been thinking about getting mine tinted more but have too many other things I need. Maybe during summer ill change my mind.

How hard is it trying to see backing up at night with the 20%?
