Believe it or not I think a level kit with 35's and 20's give about the perfect stance to these trucks.

Take Worms truck for instance. Looks even better in person.

That is a nice truck. I want to put on Carli starter system or backcountry. I kind of like 17" wheels with a talk tire, but those 20" look good. I just hate the price of 20" tires. You get less rubber and they charge more. I like the look of rock and roll offroad's arms truck. Don't want to go that radical but nice.

Alright, I've been lurking long enough! I've had this one since Oct 2010, but I finally took the time to snap a few pics today with 13,800 miles. Only mods so far are the Smarty Jr, a hard tonneau cover and the rear Reunel towing bumper (rear ended at 8 months of ownership). The front Reunel winch bumper is being built and I've got the Warn PowerPlant winch/compressor in the garage. Once I see how low the bumper drops the front I'll decide on the level/lift to run some 285/75 Terra Grapplers on the stock wheels. Probably 3" front and the overload replacement packs from Carli. I like a little rake. Fender flares? Maybe. Been there done that with higher lift and 37s on the 01, but I want to keep this one nearer stock for towing and drivability.

Thanks man! No dyno yet, I plan on using 100's or 125's and a 85% cp3 eventually, but nothing is set in stone yet, I ordered new bumpers so fueling will have to wait!

Thank you for the reply. Do you know what the trucks overall height ends up being? I have a limit into my garage. Also, do the rims have an off set that I need to know before ordering

Thank you again!

That much I cant say....

And Im 1500 miles away from home to run measure. Sorry bud!

Not sure where Worm is right now, but I think hes on the road too. Ill see if I can track his skinny rear end down and get a measurement for ya.

I cant recall the offset right off. Sorry. I don know they stick out about an inch or a bit better.

Unfortunately this will be a company truck that is leased with a $1.00 buyout. Gotta wait till the warranty expires

So wait. You get to drive the truck while the company pays for it, then buy it for a buck.


Must be good to be the vice president...





Psst.... go for a Laramie Longhorn
