    Ask him what kind of of custom work needed to be done to fit the tires. You have to play this like a complete noob. Even ask for the price to do it.

    It's OK though, it's 80k "invested" in mods ;)

    Wonder how he accumulated so much debt that he needs to sell the truck??

    80,000? That's more than Awsumdc's spent to fully SAS and trick the shit out of his truck...



    Maybe those parts were made from iron harvested from a crashed meteor...Mixed with the ashes from a thousand burnt orphan's teddy bears to create steel that was forged by hand in anarctica. By a transvestite named "Earl"

    Or, this guy thinks his shit's made of gold. who knows? :notsure:

    Sportsman charges an arm and a leg for labour. I just got a quote for 5100s, add a leaf and rear shocks and he said $700 in labour. Pretty sure I could do it all in the bay at work in under a day and get paid to do it haha. They also quoted me $300 to install/wire my four Hellas. I asked just for shits and giggles, knowing I would do it myself.
