We have a yearly tradition to shoot down Mistletoe so my oldest son and I went to the lake Friday night and shot some Mistletoe on Saturday.




Hanging out by the lake.



The Mistletoe only grows high up in a few trees so you have to shoot it down with a shotgun

After lowering the rear last summer I noticed the drivers side was starting to sag. A few weeks ago I measured it and the drivers side was 2" lower than the passenger side.

I ordered new springs and got them on today.





Made in China.... Are you kidding me? We can't even make leaf springs in the USA? Geez







I'm tired of these wheels/tires and the 2wd look. I think I'm going to do a 6" lift and some 35's soon. This think needs to go up.

Would 35's be big enough for a 6" lift on that truck?

Do you think I could get Buy with a 4" lift and 35's? Or do I need a bigger lift? The back sits up pretty good, the front is my concern.

Not sure, haven't messed with anything (truck wise) older than '07. But, it looks like there's a lot of room up front. I know on newer ones you need a 4" with a 2wd to fit 35x12.5's, but a lot depends on if you're comfortable cutting, and the wheel offset/width. I think you could do with a 4", but might as well go full 6" and be safe. Could always bump the tire size.

Added BBK Headers and straight pipes out the back. Also changed the Plugs, plug wires, cap/rotor. She sounds good.
