Nah he doesnt need to realign it, its just the corners that are coming loose, its common.

Just go behind those black plastic corners and tighten up the bolts. If theyre tight it means the mounts are coming loose.. time to whip out the Gorilla Glue.

Thats a pretty nice lookin truck, I dont care for the rims much myself but if you like it thats cool. Otherwise a very clean truck. Lets see some more pics!

hmmm, you could drill the holes out"make them bigger" in the bumper or the bracket, so that there is more adjustment.

or you could just get some new brackets. im shure there not very much!

edit.. disrigard all that, if algranger is right

does anyone know what gears i might need to push 35's? right now i have 33's on there and with cold air intake and headers my top speed is 75 SOMETIMES 80 if im going downhill with a strong back wind

i would recomend 5:29's for 35" tires and bigger. though with a regular 35" m/t tire, you could get way with 4:88's

Great looking rig! I actually had to ask someone what a "whip" was as I couldn't see any antenna in the pictures (yes I'm old, shush). Man if mine looked that good I'd find a way to park it in the living room at night so my buddies would have to walk around it on the way to the bathroom and every time they did they's say "DAMN that looks bad @$$".

Well done on the build!
