Finally made some big changes today..and more to come this week!
Found a killer deal on 20's off a 2013 with 285/65/20 BFG A/Ts at 9/32nd tread life! I drove 4 hours in total to get these bad boys, along with stopping at a friends house to mount them before I drove home lol.
Sorry for the potato quality pics, its currently pissing rain and I don't feel like going to get some good ones..
A mild before and after..
Only have rubbing a full turn going to the left..but I have a level sitting here to be installed this week, hopefully that takes that away! An even bigger change is coming on Monday..stoked for that one!
Awesome build man! How do you like the BFG's on 20's? How is the road noise and ride quality?
Thanks man! Ride quality is good! Road noise is loud lol. I noticed it right away. Cruising speed isn't bad but the stopping is terrible for noise. It doesn't bother me but I know it would some people!
The busy week has ended for the truck, and it went out with a bang!
LEVEL TIME!
Autospring 2" Level for the front.
Measurements before and after to bottom of wheel well:
Front D: 38" -> 40.5"
Front P: 38" -> 40.5"
Rear D: 39.75" -> 40"
Rear P: 39.75" -> 40"
So truck sits slightly higher in the front, but I am hoping it settles down to having the minimalist of rake for when I tow. Eeither way I am very happy! Took about 5 hours to do.. because of the damn red loctite on all the nuts. Of course I didn't have air tools readily available so things took a bit more time, but no broken, spare, or left over parts! Alignment on monday..
I'll update later with not so crappy pics!
Before level, but when we got dumped on with snow and I had the graphic done!!
Might try and do exhaust soon, as most of this didn't cost me a dime lol, but I think I'll wait for a bit. Absolutely love how the truck sits right now..
Haven't done anything new to the beast since its been so cold, rainy, or snowy here! So here are some pictures during a nice day where I took the girlfriend out to practice riding her dirtbike! And one from the last snow storm we had.
Once the consistent nice weather arrives I will be putting a 2" block in the rear to level me out 100%, do some added LED mods and a few other little things. Would love to do exhaust but I think I need to put that on the backburner for now!
Hopefully this summer brings lots of work and then I can play some more lol
Wow that's a nice truck! I especially like this body style with the rally stripe on the side. Looks best on red trucks. Good looking rig! The switch panel is slicker than snot on a doorknob too

Thanks alot!!
Finished my level today by adding the Autospring 2" Rear Block kit. High quality stuff front and rear, I am impressed so far! And no, ride quality has not been affected!
Only other real big thing left for me to do is dual exhaust. But I think that will either way until the fall(as much as I want it now), or next spring! Truck is sitting just how I like right now.
