Default Pics of the Truck

Posted the pics of my truck now that I got the lift on in my profile. It's dirty, just got back from PA Sunday and haven't washed it yet. By the way, I averaged 12.06 mpg on the trip over a total of 700+ miles. I haven't gotten the dual sterring stabilizer on yet, ran out of time. Will get ssome pics when it's clean soon. BTW Hammer, the 6" lift is a real 6" now. The wheel well increased exactly 6" in height, so maybe they fixed that with the 06 kit.
If you are planning to lift, shoot me a PM with questions and I will answer them as best as I can.

Yea, I have been told by a few that most of the company's that were not at 6" with their advertised 6" kits on the '02-'05 torsion bar front ends, are truly 6" with the coil over '06+ kits. Don't know why most stopped at 5.5" on the old setup, because Skyjacker showed it was do-able.
I know you've been waiting for this a long time, congrats. I'll look in your gallery shortly...

Dual Steering Stabilizer is a set of shocks mounted horizontally and attached to, umm, not sure as we haven't put them on yet. Basically, anytime you put large tires on you should install a steering stabilizer I am told. It helps take the vibration out of the steering column, hence, no shake in the steering wheel (which I have noticed)

The duck is from the movie Convoy. Love the movie and think the duck makes the truck individualized. Needs a good shining right now though.
