Do you run bj spacers? My t bars are pretty close to being maxed. And I don't like it

Why didn't you just buy new fenders?

3 kids in private school, 1 income family. Do the math. 150 dollars for new front fenders plus 500 dollars or more for a new bed. I only spent 50 bucks on cutting wheels and a spool of wire. I had a gallon of bed liner in the garage. I bought the truck for 900 dollars. Add that up and it equals I'm a cheap skate.

How long have you been running them? How do you like them? Did you get new shocks?

I have been running them a couple months since ive had the truck running and driving finally and i have pro comp shocks (SUCK) and its till not aligned yet so i cannot give an honest opinion. I wouldnt go over 1.5 bjs and the diff drop helped the pinion angle but the swaybar really doesnt need to be there (personal preference). I bought the spacers used for $50.Also the 4crawler swaybar kit i had to redrill holes on the blocks to get it to fit and bolt up. Im already ready to sas or go with blazeland.
