Looks great!So is that 6" up front and 4" rear? I have a 99 2wd and want the pre runner look. I'm afraid that with a 6" lift and bulge fiberglass off road fenders 35s would look to small.

yea basically my rear does sit a little lower than the front, maybe an inch or two, Before I switched my rear shocks, it was a lot more noticeable, but I think the king shocks gave it a 1 inch lift in the rear or so. my tires are 35x12.5x17

I think 35s are perfect for a 6 inch lift, I dont know about the fiberglass fenders and how that would make the 35s look.

Very nice truck. The black rims ,window tint, black grille, painted head lights, and the black emblems really make the silver paint look good. I would suggest tinting your tail lights too. I love the emblems. I want to do something simular for our '97 F150. I want to get the same style emblems and plasti-dip them black and have the "F150" part either silver or chrome. Again, awesome looking truck. Keep updating the status of your truck. You have good taste in your mods.

thanks, yea I have considered tinting my tail lights or even getting oem harley tail lights (black on the inside, a little darker looking.) But i have no money for mods right now, Im trying to save up to ditch my lift kit and mid travel my truck, sort of like a chase truck. Im saving for the Camburg 7.0 kit, with fiberglass fenders and a new bumper, Easily totals to 5k. But that wont be for another year or so. Since Im also planning to re gear and add a locker during the summer.

my rear shocks were 700 out the door, Ive checked and they have gone up to $900 if you have a lift. I know the shocks are an overkill for now, but I do plan to make my truck into a midtravel truck. And as for the headlights, there was a tutorial on here, that I followed on how to paint them.

its not an exact long travel kit, mid travel is probably what you would probably see on a chase truck or so. Usually mid travel kits allows 10-14 inches of wheel travel in the front. Its something comparable to a raptor's suspension . here is camburgs f150 with the kit i plan to add to my truck.



and this is a Long travel kit they have 17 inches + of wheel travel, usually allow you to do this, if your truck is caged up and whatnot.
