Are we talking about bumpstops for the front IFS or for the rear?

Its so rednecky! I'd love to drive it and be a reckless teenager I'd like the paint if there wasn't red splattered everywhere.
lol...thanks! The red is the original paint underneath the crap spray paint. It came off when the guy was pressure washing it. lol. I'm definitely a redneck now

rear.
So remove those and put the stock ones back on...or are those just extensions on the rubber bump stop?

Just so you know your rear springs are missing the overload spring which will increase axle wrap and hop so your rear end may be a little wild lol

Man that truck is FUGLY! Its reasons like this retards & rattle cans don't mix, I rattle canned my truck and it doesn't do that, but I wetsanded the whole thing with 400 grit, and wiped it down with some final klean before hand... I vote rattle can it flat black, dont forget the door jams! powerwash and degrease the crap outta everything! I'm glad someone can give that poor think some TLC... You could make a nice truck out of that if you had the time! Congrats!

Thanks! wasn't sure if you were calling me a retard or not...but I definitely DID NOT paint that truck. I'd stick with the original paint before I decided to paint over it.

Look at the front passenger side. You have no lower bumpstop...
Thanks! Didn't even see it...better flex that way

Nice! I actually kinda like it. lol. Could I JB weld the diff instead of actually welding it? I'm sure it if I used enough there wouldn't be a problem. Only thing is is this truck will be street legal so I can drive to the places I go wheeling at. LOL
