    the first 2 pics in my OP are the last weekend i had it..

    i think im going to run by the shop saturday and start cutting to make my 33s fit.

    i really want to keep my front wheel spacers on now for the time being.. and seeing how i rub with 31s.. it should be interesting on how much im gonna need to cut away

    haha thats soon, and im a safety first kinda guy! so i wanted the cage first, since i dont really crawl, i already go through the desert at 60+ speeds (as fast as my truck will let me go with stock gears) so i really needed a cage first, and i figured since im doing a cage mise well throw a cell in there now so i dont need to do it later... lol

    ill have the front end done by the end of the year and hopefully the rear started.

    im a trend starter :D
