    True. Or just add wheel spacers.

    Id just give it a quick spray of black rust paint.

    I'm running AP Expos with Billy 5125 10" in the stock location with the stock bump AND these ES 4.5" bumps for now. I do plan on upgrading when I figure out how to do it right. No issues yet. We'll see how they hold up.

    I got $6500 out of it after deducting $800 for the salvage fee, It's an easy fix I just need to get the parts together. Paint job won't be cheap either.

    Its a recurring thing for me. I just hit it with a little black paint to cover it up. If it looks rusty maybe give it a little sand and clean first

    Curious what peoples thoughts are on my issue. I have trouble getting my engine to start I have to occasionally give it some gas for it to fire up. Is it possibly my fuel pump going out? It seems to be getting worse slowly over time. My engine is supercharged w/ 7th injector.

    Could possibly be the pump. How old is your fuel filter. Filters get clogged over time and their a cheap fix. Heck even a faulty fuel cap can give you a drop in fuel pressure, also a cheap fix.

    So I need some opinions, I'm hoping by the end of this summer gettin new shoes on the truck and my brother brags about his toyo RT but they're pretty high in my budget so I was wondering if I should say screw the budget and go for them or if their are other great substitutes. Let me know!

    If you've got a buddy that welds, I'd highly recommend just welding in your own crossmember over the BAMF kit. Cheaper and much more versatile.

    Which truck's it going on?
