sometimes you just gotta dive into a situation and make the best out of it....on my old truck i had to replace the plenum gasket on the bottom of my intake maifold i tried to get someone to help me for weeks and nobody had a clue the only guy i knew was busier than bees....i had to just do it blind with a friend who had very little knowledge of moors and it went great small snags that i had to overcome and the truck went backtogether and ran great....this will def teach you to think outside the box and when your done youll have the confidence to do more its all in how comfortable you are with it....this is easy youll kick yourself when your done....now im giving you advice about jumping in and i still havent cracked my headlights open to paint them.....you cant mess up really i can cause if i melt my light or efffff them up i have to buy new ones and wait for them to come and not be able to see in the dark.....you can just put your truck back together ......enuf of my ongoing......good luck to you we are still here to help if you need it......

so you DONT have the over-axle plate? if you dont have that than you cant install the kit. you'd need that to hold your axle to the axle carrier. (look at the pics i posted) maybe you do have it and just dont know it. just print out all the pics we provided and take them out to your truck when you do the drop. use them as a reference...

I'm probably gonna post this in a new thread. But, I wanted to see if you guys had an opinion of these wheels? They're 22"x9". Thinking of going with the regular 275/45/22's up front but on the back could I take a 9" wide wheel and mount an 295, or 315 on the back? I just wondered what the maximum tire size for that rim would be.

I think I like these rims. They're gonna cost me more than buying the "chrome clad" 20" factory jobs with tires, but they look good. Don't they?
