Truck looks great. That is making me want to get a 4x4 more and more.

Ive had a couple in the past, 95, 99, and 01 and should have gotten one this time. I dont know if they will leave this link to my little site but there are some pics on there.

I did all the lifts myself(well installed that is).

I will have to post some of my 01. I still have the wheels that are on the green 99 on the front page. Not the tires just the wheels. Tires were 315-75-16 Geolander MTs (Yokohama).

<edit>The picture in front of the house, is that just with the Torsion bars turned up or is that with the body lift too?

the first photo is of my current set up with the 3" body lift.

The second photo just has the torsion bars cranked. And no, I had no rubbing what so ever. I even when mudding a few times with no problems.

And yes, a buddy and I installed the body lift in about 7 hours. It was my first install and we had basic tools. Read the list of tools brfore you start.

What is the backspacing on your Eagle wheels?

4.5" back spacing. Looks sweet...the wheel sticks out about 2" form the fender well.

Nice Ride!,
I have 20" polished alum. rims now with Goodyear HP tires. There great for 2/3rds of the year for me, and look nice, but I use my truck for hunting, and getting to the ski slopes in the winter. I'd like a good alternative to the 20"ers.
I'm considering 17 or 18"rims and a set of BFG AT tires and just switching out in the fall.
Anyone suggest a cheep rim(durable though)?
