You GOT to be kidding. :pat: All-Pro, Marlin, Trail-Gear, Sky Manufacturing and the list goes ON and ON for SFA lift kits and the prices have just gone down. Check out their websites and good luck!

Nice looking runner, might I ask how much that cost you? I agree with the others, ditch the push pull.

Ya hi-steer is pretty much the only thing it is missing, and the guy already had a sweet alarm system installed... I love it, finally got what I have been looking for for the past year or so... and thanks for the comments guys

I agree on the more details. Specifically, amount of suspension/body lift and how the 35's do on the rear for rubbing. I have 33's on my '85 and I want to jump up to 35's to fill out the wheel wells better (2" body lift and 3" suspension leaves too much gap for the little amount of rockcrawling I do).

Nice truck, nifty color combo.

Peace,

J.

The lift I pro comps 4 inch lift with 2 inch shackles, so 6 inches total (if you cant add). Not my first chopice for fitting 35's, but it flexes real good! When thses tires wear down I am gonna get 15x8 rims instead of the 15x10's that are on there so the tires stuff better. But even the way it is now there is very minimal rubbing, you have to try to get any rubbing...

so not much more is needed, but heres a little of what I want to do:

When the push-pull steering breaks or when I feel like spending money I will definately get crossover-but why fix what aint broke?

Longer travel shocks and some new hoops to mount them on...

And if I strick it rich, maybe a dual transfer case... in my dreams
