    Peavine Mtn in Reno, NV is in the Background.

    So install went well. Did the front in 6 hrs and rear in 5. Could've done it a little quicker with some help. Brother showed up when I was torquing the last bolt. Nice timing!

    The set-up feels excellent. Hit a set of RR tracks I go over at least 4 times a day. Went at them going about 30mph. Didn't even feel them. My brother just started laughing and said, "Holy Shit!"

    Took them on some light dirt roads with some nice ruts and holes in some spots. Handled real well, felt great. All I have to compare to is stock and it blows it away. As it should.

    Next step is a cab mount chop in preparation for new wheels and tires.

    I'm on the waiting list for the 17" SCS Stealth 6 in matte black. Going to pair with 285/70/17 Nitto Trail Grapplers. Can't wait, it will completely transform the look of the truck.

    Got a new grill. Didn't like the base model black one, plus it was faded from the sun.

    Nice setup. Keep us posted after you get the wheels and tires. Might wanna wait till u get the tires and wheels before the cmc. So u know how much u have to cut. Either way good luck bud. Sounds like you got it going on. I really like the looks of those dirt king ucas. Look super beefy.

    image.jpg Tires, who ever thought it would be such a tough decision. Was going to go with Trail Grapplers, but have since talked myself into The new Ridge Grappler at 285 70 17. There isn't much mud around these parts and I drive my truck on the highway daily. Pics of new set-up to come soon.
