Default Pic's after lifting

So over the last month I have turned my tb’s, added a leaf spring, installed a 3” body lift and finally put my 33” tires on yesterday (then promptly took it out and broke it) but I thought I would put up a couple of pictures to show what it looks like.

I didn’t break anything major I just broke the drivers side shock that I fixed before I brought it down out of the hills. And with the body lift on it I did not get the wire for the electric fan secure enough and cut the line and broke the mount on it. I fixed the shock and am headed to the junkyard Saturday to get an electric fan to put in.

I had 31’s on it and they looked silly, the top looked like it was on steroids and the bottom looked like chicken legs.
