My 92 gets some light wheelin and ranch style work, but I dont think I could take it on a serious trail unless I added some more links and track bars, reinforced the hell out of the frame, and did something to improve the front driveline angles... 6" lift gets em a little too steep. 92 was the tow vehicle... the offroad truck gets serious trail duty.

I take mine out every now and then, but as a daily driver i don't can't risk breaking it now, so i haven't done anything to extreme. mud pits, small rivers, random piles of rubbish...
here's a pic of me flexing a little.
and after i got stuck in a pile of chicken crap

Nice!

What brand lift? It looks... right.

Skyjacker 4" front springs, they actually lifted the front end about 5" in total because the stock springs were sagging a bit. I just got the local spring shop to put in an add a leaf in the rear which brought it up 3". Skyjacker Hydro shocks all the way around and dual steering stabilizers.

my truck loves the sand, it really doesent sink as much as you think it would and if you can keep off the pedal enough then theres not much wheel hop i wouldnt take my truck to the extremes but i'd go there to pull someone out

Does that rear add a leaf affect the ride much?

Well, I didn't know it was chicken crap until it was too late. The pile had been sitting there for a year, so it was crusty and growing weeds, but the cummins sank right through that crust into the slimey smelly goo beneath.
