    Thanks, sent him a PM to see if it was sold. Couldn't find a thread he had with it.

    Thanks, hopefully one can be found before that.

    Thinking about going. Probably...
    Edit: after thinking about it, between the flights, hotels and week off work, i'd cost me around $3000 probably. Taking into account what I wouldnt be earning in my week off.
    Probably not worth it. I'd rather spend that on my next trip with my truck

    Well, things are looking up for me so my truck might be staying. Right now I'm running ICON extended travel coilovers & camburg UCA's up front. I'm thinking of going LT in the front. Can I use the coilovers & UCA's that I already have or do I need new ones? What all is needed? Also, I want to run 35's but I don't want giant fenders. Who makes a good fender that won't look over sized? Thanks for the help!

    Nope, need a totally new kit. Check glassworks, theirs look pretty clean. Quite a few different brands to chose from for glass.

    you need to do way more research.

    you need 8 inch coilovers (no you cant use your current ones)
    long travel means extended lower and upper control arms. (so no you cant use your stock length ucas)

    most places make a 3.5 inch, 4.5 and possibly a 6 inch buldge.

    you need new coil overs, axles, and upper/lower arms and fiberglass (usually means a new bumper as well) if you decide to go LT. as for glass not looking to over sized, i think the McNeil 4" fenders are pretty low key.

    That kit was designed to use a 14" shock, so you will need a bed cage as well to fit them.
