    Hello Everyone,

    I've been looking at this site for about a year now, and have learned a lot of great information here. I was waiting until my truck was worthy to show everyone. I finally got time to install the lift a couple of weeks ago. It was actually easier than I thought, these Fabtech kits are way better than some of the other brands I've installed in the past.

    So, here is my first post on this site. I'm proud to finally be a member here.

    Hope you all like it. I'm pretty happy with it. This is my 3rd lifted truck and it is my favorite. It has already gotten more compliments than my other 2 combined.

    Thanks guys. I put the info. about the truck in my profile to the left.
    It is a 6 inch Fabtech lift, 33 inch Toyo Open Country Tires, 18 inch Mazzi Hulk wheels.

    I know most of you guys on here like the blacked out look, but that is just not my thing. I like a little chrome here and there. Not to much though.
