Good idea I'll get the truck all sitting level and make sure the 33"s clear lock to lock then I'll take her in to get straightened up!

Just get a firestone lifetime alignment and then you can get it done whenever you tweak it at all.

She's lookin a hell of a site better than that last time I seen her are Rousch...

I've been looking at getting the AMF as well just have not had a chance to get to it yet. I have the 268 cam and Street RV Head, once I get to the AMF I'm she'll really start to breath.

I glad you decided to hang on to it...Right choice.
