    I feel you on the time thing. So much I want to do to the truck myself (and the house for that matter) but just don't have the time. Sometimes it's just worth it to shell out the $$$

    Ya well since mines been crushed a few times it'll probably be a bitch and I don't have the right tool to do it etc.... worst case I'll pump the thing full of silicone just for the trip then replace it

    You guys were great in cleaning everything up,

    Pisses me off crap like that happens! And it always will.

    Sell what you can on Craigslist or Facebook and burn the rest!

    I'm inspired by you guys with 2.7L builds. I really believe I may keep mine and motor on with it.


    You sure do have some beautiful land up there, looks awesome!

    It's a constant battle luckily I now work for a disposal company and we get free tippage at city land fills for cleaning up. Best thing you can do is join or create a local 4x4 association and maintain trails etc. Ya man the 2.7 is a great engine and these are great trucks once you learn how to use em they're unstoppable. Also 4hi will be useless just go 4lo

    Couple things I was reading some of the earlier posts in here. First I'm officially cancelling the Baja trip. With the wedding and the Canadian dollar it's just too much. Gonna replace it with a trip to Colorado instead lol. Also looking at cutting out my rear shock towers and replacing them with f350 towers to get that boneless gymnast flex

    Turkey Jam was finally a success this year. We had great weather and finally we managed not to screw up the turkey!!! Also I got to beat on my kings a bunch and they're sooo much better than my icons ever were

    TYETTI,
    just reread several builds looking for who was running procomp 97 16x8s and 4.25bs...4 wheel parts is telling me they won't fit on my truck. Did you have any issues clearing your breaks with these rims?

    No these are the exact wheels that are on my truck but @Fleabag had the exact same issue come up. I feel like they've made changes to the wheel line up he went with the pro comp 87 series. But for the record this is the part number from my wheels
    Pcw 97-6883s4.25h

    I have had zero fitment issues in the two years I've been using these wheels. They do however barely clear the calipers so if they made any changes at all I could see how they wouldn't fit
