Do you have dual steering stabilizers on your truck Merfman?

Don't get me wrong your truck looks good, I just want a little more lift on mine.

I feel the same way. Around here I my truck is clean. Underside sheet metal in good shape. Today I seen one so rotted out that 35's would have fit with no lift! Complete with 7th generation front bumper and duct taped rockers.
Been spending what little time I have on getting ready for winter. Chasing codes and an intermittent stall condition. Hoping the new vac can helps. Need to test TPS and fuel pressure.
Body work is the next priority. Just haven't pulled the trigger on new core support and front fenders. Doesn't look as I will have time this year for paint. One piece at a time.

Thanks, I can understand about wanting bigger, but there are compromises that must be made. Twenty years ago all my friends were running 38-44's. If I was younger, 35's or maybe SAS with 38's. Hard to get in and out of trucks that high. Would have to regear and of course would need a bigger motor. Longer brake lines; Maybe drive shafts. How much are you willing to spend? I went with the 4" lift and 33's because it doesn't "max out" the stock components. I need a dependable trail rig that will not break at the thought of work. That being said, I have been thinking about a 2" body lift when I do the core support.

I think it looks perfect. I've been kicking new 31's or go for it and get 33's.. Being 5'6", 45, 1 back surgery, It's been a tough decision. It really has a nice stance. I've not seen any pics recently of 31's that really sway me away from spending the extra and 33's.
