^^^That is a heckuva shifter handle you got there, what's the story behind it?!^^^
Couple quick shots from the other day at the farm, truck isn't clean, and the pics not the greatest, but dangit it is mine.
I know, I am already thinking about an add-a-leaf or block to pick up the butt some...

Thanks, it came off my grandpa's(RIP) 86 Dodge, which is now mine. It was the hood ornament and it finally broke off, so I got the bright idea to tap it and mount it on the shifter. It is a perfect compliment to the history of these trucks and their heritage(rock on Dodge). I've had it on for almost a year, and it fits pretty nice in the palm of my hand. (It does make the shifts slightly longer)
I also run a daystar leveling kit and it just doesn't do its job, but its better than nothing.

Cool story on the shifter, kind of carrying on the truck/family legacies
Unfortunately, I can not honestly tell you what kind of leveling kit is in the truck. I bought it with that already installed. I will take a walk out and see if I can see any labels/decals. It sits nice in the front end, but is almost too level, commonly looks like the back end is squatting under load. If anything, I myself prefer a little forward rake
Yeah, nothing showing any company labels, model or part numbers. all of the shocks were replaced with red/white ones making me think of Rancho or maybe Skyjacker, but I can not be 100% certain.

I will never buy the kumhos again. They are an E Rated tire but they feel as if there a C. At higher speeds they are unstable, if that makes any sense to you. They feel like the Toyo MTs. I would buy ProComp again on my next tire. I have only gotton about 4000 miles on these and tire life is not good, cant blame the tire, its all the mods to the trucks fault. This truck will burn out as long as you would like and im not affraid to show anybody, ask the local police.

Here are some updates, I just got some 285/70/17 Firestone M/Ts. I had to run two sets of spacers on the rear, a 1/4" on the inside dual, and 1.5" in between.
I have a 1.5" lift spacer in the front, but I think now I will go to a 3" w/ some MX6 shocks all around.
