They were just over $600 shipped. Alcan already had all the measurements, just had to tell them I wanted 300lb over what they already had designed

Awesome truck Krookz! Great work! Do you clear those 33x12.50 pretty good offroading? I was thinking about going 33x13.50 with that same set up.

Thanks man. The 33's are where its at, im more than happy with them over the 35's. If you look at the 1st pic a post or 2 up, the front pass wheel is about fully stuffed and not rubbing anything. Kinda hard to see, the tree was being a pain in the ass

mcampos0 · 11-02-2009, 12:22 PM

solus694 · 11-02-2009, 12:27 PM

How'd you get the tire gate fabbed up? I'm thinking that's probably the way to go for me, since I've got a fullsize spare already. Just don't wanna spend too much more money than I already have on the taco.

To be honest, I pretty much winged it. I looked at Silverback's build, got the basic's down from him. Did some pre-measuring to know how much material I would need. And just went at it... Here's what I can sum up for ya

2 upright flat bar to mount to the stock tailgate bolts and the top 2 of the bed bolts on either side(Note: Dont use the taillight bolts as supports but make the holes). 1 pipe across the bottom to hold them together, and notches at the ends to slide over the stock tailgate hinge's. Tabs for the bushings to sit inside of, with holes for bolts/pins. The gate is just a cradle for the tire, I made it long enuf so the spare would lay down far enuf, and not block my view. I cut a flat peice of steel, drilled 3 holes for wheel studs. Mounted the plate so all the weight would be distributed on the top bar, bottom bar, and the plate evenly.

If I were to change anything, I would get bigger bushings so the gate wouldnt sag when opened. You can also see it bounch a little because the ones I used are so light. And maybe a hinge system like Fire(Kevin) came up with for his.

I had originally wanted a 6" lift, but talked myself out of it to go with the All Pro LT, everytime I see your truck it makes me want to run out and get a 6" lift. This is one sick ass truck. I love it.
