Great lookin' truck. Imho, it looks much better without the body lift.
Let us know how you like those tires. I have the other version of the red letter grabbers with the less aggressive tread pattern.
So far loving the tires but when it gets icy will be the real test, and the chassis is much happier without the body lift and it looks better. I should have taken a picture when we took the body lift out of the box. When we set it down it was slightly banana'ed. It was about an 1.5" off the frame in the front. The kit was either installed incorrectly or it was a poor kit because there was no center support in the box. Just the front and rear.
Here's a couple of better pictures. It's a bit dirty, but still looking good.
A friend of mine who works with industrial conveyor belts gave me a 4'x8' peice of 3/8" conveyor belt for a bed mat and a smaller piece to make a mat for the inside of the tool box.
So far we both are in love with the big truck and how comfortable it is cruising down the highway.
I just bought this truck from the original owner. Paid $3500 for her and have put $2600 into it. I looked at a lot of trucks before buying this one, lots of worn out junk or just plain overpriced trucks. This one is in great shape inside and out and just needed what any truck with 224,000 miles would need. Now shes good to go and looks good to boot.

They’re just a good excuse for a road trip. The key is to either leave early before the last minute idiots hit the road or hunker down and hang on. I’m on high ground so normal hurricanes are no biggie.

Still and all, not an experience I would look forward to.
Went to Chattanooga over the weekend to see my kiddo. We took these while in the Ocoee.
Drove the truck over 1000 mi this weekend from St. Louis, to Chattanooga. Averaged 14.9 on the 500 mi return trip @ 70. I made this a month ago with an avg of 14.2
So for anyone who has tried to find a deep oil pan for the magnum engine you know they are hard to find. Well I found a vendor down in Florida who use to only sell the pans with engines he had built but has decided to sell a few without the engine. He is asking $350 for the pan, $26 for the deep pick up and then shipping. So here are some pictures of the pan.
