Nice shoes. Do you have a lift? If not do you notice any rubbing or close calls to rubbing with 35's? I have been thinging about putting some 35's on my truck and based on measurements they will fir the stock suspension without a lift but I would hate to put them on and they not fit.

the only time they rub is at full lock turn. and then it is only a little rub against control arm. I took the truck on a couple of trails to flex it some and check for clearance issuses. everything seems to clear fine. All i did was crank t-bars 1"

Man those are some sick tires...GREAT LOOK! I am sick to my stomache reading all these posts of you guys "All I did was crank the torsion bars" but, seriously, is that ALL it is. I have read acouple differant things, but if I understand correctly- 1) jack up the front to take pressure off the suspension. 2) adjust torsion bolt 3) lower truck and check measurement. I mean really, is that ALL thats involved. Has anyone had any problems with alignment? Are longer shocks required? Any special tools, or just a good socket set?

I have a '05 1500 QCSB, and hate the 245/70-17 Michelins that are stock on it. Also hate the forward lean. I would be content with just putting 265/70 on it, but if its a matter of turning a bolt....I'd be delirious with leveling it out and some 285';s or 33's.

So here are the plans,
-level it out
-33's
-airraid intake
-1" tb
-take it to the exhaust shop and have custom cat back dual sides
-15-20% tint all way around
-spray bed liner
-class 3 hitch
