    Put the flares back on, they looked fine. Glass fenders are going to stick out a lot further then your tires. They are made for LT after all.

    Use the money to save for your 4x4 conversion.

    ^^^x2 not only that but didnt you say your plans are to get different wheels and go with a 255/85 or skinnier tire? if so then fiberglass is going to make those look ridiculous. kind of like going with a wide body kit on a sports car and then running the little donut spare tires.

    No way am I going the Kyle route. And what made you think I didn't have a girlfriend? I just don't talk about her too much on here.

    Hit me up with what you are interested in and I will let you know. what we can do.

    Always wanting more lift until they drive it and realize they can't see the cars in the parking lot and hit one. lol.

    Looking nice!!

    Not yet. As I mentioned before it may be a couple of days before I get it inside. I have a pretty heavy load right now with 8 vehicles ahead of yours at the moment. I will get to it as soon as I can.
