New Wheels and Tires are on...

I went with KMC XD 766 Diesel's with 35x12.5x18 Nitto Mud Grapplers. Up front to level it out is a Kelderman Air Ride. I haven't put the rear on yet because the compressor (Oasis XD3000) didn't show up until yesterday and I lost one of the scrader valves so I couldn't manualy fill the rear. That will probably go on this weekend.



Next is to get rid of the gray on the lower part of the truck and that pin striping. A little warmer weather and the pinstriping will be gone, it's already peeling at the front. The bottom will get bedlined when I get the tank done.

Looks great. So you have no lift other than leveling it out? If so that's the pic I've been looking for to judge the height and appearance, I want what you have keeping the factory rims though.

I have no other lift other than the leveling kit via Kelderman Air Ride up front. I am in the process of having a gooseneck deckover trailer built so I figured the height I gained from the tires alone is the max I would want to go.

I'm considering getting the Glassworks Unlimited fenders front and rear. I'm just going to hold out until I can get both together.

I do have plans for either a roll pan or a road armor rear bumper. Haven't decided yet.

Glassworks Unlimited fenders front and rear and the road armor rear bumper would be absolutely great. Pretty much the full package. .

Wish I could do that to mine

They are just home made ones. I'd like to eventually get the kind that tuck up under the truck. Big $ for those though.

I didn't make these, the guy that owned the truck told me he made them and after looking underneath at how they mounted you could tell they are home made. They are very strong though which is good. I will definitely be selling them when I can afford the PowerSteps.
