well i gave them a good trying out today in a pasture filled with mud, pretty happy how it gets around, i took the running boards off tonight, i have a mixed decision if i like it better with or without them, did give me a little more tire clearance, gonna have to trim a small amount off the fender so i can get in the rough stuff without fear of it tearing up a fender or the tire, old skool luvr i am gonna use flexi-flares, the 2 1/2'' wide style with the wire reinforced outer edge, gonna wait till the weekend to put them on as well as the rear spacers and fender trim! i will get some more pics!

i am trying to decide how far to go down with the flares on the fender, are there any pics of Rottidog's ride on here? i looked at lenny's pics, but cant tell how far he went on the back with his flares, thanks guys!

took a pic tonight with it a little cleaner and the running boards off, gonna spray something on the frame rails, probably some under coating, i did put the 1 1/2'' wheel spacers on the back tonight, cleaned off the face of the axle flange with a wire brush, used loc-tite and torgued the spacers in 3 increments, put about 15-20 miles on it to ease my mind a little, not crazy about them, but they look to be a nice piece, ill get the flares on a get it cleaned up and take some good pics this weekend, thanks everybody for the compliments, Tim,

DKSDAD...have you had any issues with t-bars cranked 1 1/2''? i was planning on lifting a little in the front, but this is my daily driver, so kinda wondering about cv wear, the running boards gone are growing on me, not use to them not hitting my leg when i get out...lol, i think it does look a lot cleaner without them....thanks!
