Looks like you have a leveling kit. They look big for 33's. Must be the monster tread.

Yeah I have a 2.5" level in the front.
Going to put a 1" block in the rear, because it sits just a hair low in the rear for me.
I want it just a hair higher in the rear, than the front.

Yep the Next thing Im working on is the front bumper..
I building a monster bumper, kinda like the Road armor design.

Heres a unfinished pic

Looks awesome. I'm looking into wheels and tires right now. What is the backspacing on your wheels? Just measured mine (stock 20's) and its 5 7/8. Moving to 17" wheels and dont want my tires sticking out. Getting 33x12.50 17 tires, or the metric equivelant. Thanks.

The back spacing on mine are 4.5" but mine do stick out some about 1 1/2" past the fenders, but i plan on putting flares anyway.
