the next step is the alignment of the fenders and bed sides, but thats going to be done after all the details that come out after the mods are done... right now the 4wd axles are ripping the inside boots a pair per trip so thinking going with 930 cvs inside to handle the 15" front travel and thats the priority to be ready for the chasing at the norra race.... the rear works great and came out with 18" of travel.... right now i rather have a rough looking truck that runs great and can haul *** on the desert than one that looks nice and handles like ****...

Thanks...considering he's 16, and the truck has 60k miles, its going to stay pretty stock, except for an exhaust, intake, programmer. I'll stiffen up the suspension when the stock shocks start to wear out.

Wow I wish mine had 60,000 miles on it. I had mine looking the way it is before I turned 17
