    well howdy stranger :wave:

    yeah, fingers crossed that it either comes down in price a little, or another company decides to make on. i'm also asuming that's a 50'' bar, and i've been looking more in the 40'' range.

    yeah, that's probably too big for what i have in mind.

    anywhere is good. tor, sugar hill, the beaches down south. i think there is another place or two northeast of houston too.

    anything is better than pavement.

    edit: smiley face, go for it. jsut don't make it gay......

    lowered to 35s in 2 weeks, i love it :laugh:

    depends on if you want to regear. if you don't want to, then 255s for sure. if you are going to regear, then either or. hard to say without knowing your driving style and what kind of stuff you hit most of the time

    i'd seriously advise gearing before or at the same time as the tires of you get 35s. tell you what tough. if you can wait another couple of weeks before getting tires, i can come by your place on the weekend and we can swap my wheels and tires onto your truck for a test spin to see how the 2.7 handles it. i'd try to chop back your cab mount before then though.
