here she is with a t-bar crank and shackles, i got about 2" on the dot from the tbar crank.


hopefully my rims will be here shortly so my dad can bring them into work, mount them, and hopefully do an alignment even tho its his day off.

Are thoses 2 inch lift shackles? I'm about to order some and i'm trying to figure out what size to get so i can hopefully fit 32's and if it will be close to level with a 1.5 inch t-bar crank.
-(already have 2inch body lift)

O man thats sick! ya it definately looks like you got some trimming in your future for those front fenders, but its worth it. i like the wheels. i would get a set if i wasnt in COLLEGE. ya im broke. ive been living off of ramen noodles for the last like 3 months. anyway, my dad owns 2 body shops so im gonna paint my stock wheels black i think, get some $15 autozone shackles and modify them to get some more strength, t-bar crank, and when i get the money, do a nice set of 30's. i do want the black wheel look though i like that. I cant beleive you got that thing for $750! how many miles you got?

Keep the miles rollin! you know what would look real good on there? 5% tint all the way around. Keep the black sceme goin. Spray some rust converter, and then some undercoat on the frame too. If you want to tint it let me know and i can type you up some tips, that is if ya dont know how to do it already, you seem to be pretty handy. Otherwise, i cant wait to see this thing come together. It looks much better with just the lift and shoes! Now ya need some mud on there!
