Looks great. Just curious did you have to install a longer driveshaft?
Still using the stock drive shaft.... Right now I'm still waiting for the torsion bars to settle so I can get a new wheel alignment and new axles as well. As for offroading, NJ is passing a law to make it illegal to go wheeling.. First offense is a 2 month suspension of your drivers license second offense is 1yr suspension and loss of vehicle and third offense is 2 yr suspension and loss of vehicle, so it's not worth it getting caught. It's still going to be a show truck, but my friends want to get it all muddy which I'm not a big fan of because where I live the block is too small. So my neighbors would be pissed if I washed off my truck and there was mud all over the street. But who knows we shall see. I'm waiting for a really nice day so I can take new pictures.

They are at least going to have designated 4x4 areas right? Like 4x4 parks? [sm=insomnia.gif]

Probably not because the environmentalist are the ones that got this bill passed. NJ officials said that they are plans of a designated park but they are getting to much heat about that. So most likely it's never going to happen because they would do anything to avoid any kind of controversy.

Ouch! That really bites!

Remember, if you see an environmentalist stuck in the ditch, don't help them! The extra fuel needed to pull them out is hard on the environment!

Lookin' good, Dave! Kudos on all the hard work! I plan to lift mine too, but it has to wait a couple of months. When I do, I will be sure to post the results.

Its a 6" Superlift Kit. I got it from Summitracing and it set me back like 1,700.00 but now the kit went up alot in price. I would advise in getting a 5" BDS kit because it requires less cutting and welding. Click on the link below, it lists all the lift kits they make for our trucks and all the info about each kit.
