yeah that is the only complaint I have too Pyro. Turning radius. I think its a flaw in the design. The knuckle and lower control arm rub at full lock I think.

Looks great dude.

As a side not, anyone in the central FL area looking to do a lift or gears should check out TJ's 4x4 Warehouse, they do great work and have the best prices by far.

yeah, what size are they? someone earlier suggested they're 35's, but they look bigger than that to me. what's a turning radius? i don't think trucks have one

i second the fender flare idea, go one ebay, there's some for 200 something bucks.

Yep, was a black toolbox on it too for about the first year since I bought it. Started on the blacked out red truck theme, because everybody home had a chromed out truck. But when I moved to Florida and it was just the opposite, more "city" boys and blacked out trucks are a dime a dozen.
So, being the trend bucking individualist that I am, I reversed it and went to stainless steel and diamond plate...
