    What tire size is that? I'm assuming the stock 7.5" wide / 5.5" BS rims?

    Cool. They look great. Good info about the Matrix studs and ball joint press - saving that for later.

    They sure are! They are 17x9.5 with -18mm offset so that brings it to a 4.5" backspace.

    Hahah yeah. 3 of the wheels went smooth with just a brass hammer but I had just replaced the driver front wheel bearing and hub and they were stubborn to say the least. So I figured I'd give this a try. Worked like a charm. It would really only work on the front. The rear might work if you removed all the brake hardware. But I was able to do it without removing shoes or anything in the rear other than the drum itself.

    Love the clean look of this. Very very nice. Voltage selection for each battery, oh so very nice.

    You have now shown me what I want to do, just scared to use this spot. I spill coffee there so often :cookiemonster:

    Haha, thank you very much. I plan on upgrading wheels, but need to save up since I just got the lift done. I figure spacers are a cheap, temporary solution.
    285/70/17. They are the stock wheels.

    That makes sense. When I had my stock rims and put on 265’s I think my tires were pretty frickin close to the UCA then.

    Yeah I'll most likely get some wheel spacers for the time being until I save up for some new wheels.

    Well I might have found a deal. Ordered https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OUOTW4M/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
    although Amazon says it won't fit, Hawks site and Tirerack both confirm that as the correct part number for our trucks. $53 shipped for HPS 5.0 pads and Rotors. Too good to be true? We shall see.

    Nice, looks like 2 kits left if anyone wants a set of front brakes for cheap.

    Never heard of that wheel company but saw your wheels and was intrigued. I like some of their designs they look good!
