Oh i know everything is going to wear faster the way i have it lifted in the front. cv-s are probably next...

If you can get enough lift with a body lift kit, and keep chassis ride height within specs, steering & suspension components will operate as designed and maintenance costs will be significantly reduced.

Nice build! If you're looking for a good 10" sub still, check out the Kenwood Excelon. I have a 10" Excelon sub and its a shallow mount sub, so it has a smaller motor on the back and it still hits hard!

hey thanks! , I was at the local car stereo shop earlier today and saw the kenwoods. they hit pretty hard in the demo board. They also had kicker 10" for 98 bucks.. Will make up my mind here quick, as i have a few long drives lined up a the end of the month, and not having adequate tunes suck! The 15" i had was way too much for me..

Its been awhile so i thought i would update;

truck hit 360,000kms today, still surprises people when they see it, and see how clean the interior is for its mileage and vintage.
Replaced the thermostat and flushed out the dex-cool with some prestone green, as it was running a little hot. bought some fluid for the t-case and went to change the oil and cracked the fill plug , and litterally 2-3 litres of atf came out the fill plug, so have to change that t-case input seal..
Did some wheeling last weekend and found out fast that its going to need some more lift as it was rubbing the fenders and body quite a bit..

Had some time to clean it up a bit today, so i took some pictures down at the lake this evening.
