    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    I still say keep it just lower it and toss those wheels on CL I'm sure you can get enough to buy some 33's or 35's

    the problem with lowering it is i have NO IDEA where to start... and how to go about doing it plus i know there is a lot of little things that go with it besides just takeing the lift off correct?

    I'm with everyone else with lowering it and keeping the truck but I'm thinking with a 12" lift you will probably need an all new suspension because those shocks probably won't fit right with the up/down travel needed.

    The body lift might be tricky because all your body bushings are gone but I'm sure you can buy all the bolts and bushings. You really want to just get it back to a 6" lift so taking off the BL and the spacers & blocks should do it. It's going to take some work but a lot cheaper then buying a new truck.

    I'm sure he has shocks for a 6" lift the top plate spacers and BL are doing the other 6" of lift. So the shocks should be good but I haven't really seen the setup. OP take some pics of the front and rear suspension so we can get an idea where you should start.

    you probably could sell it to some high school or college kid. your best bet would be to try craigslist.

    Yeah the problem is with all those mods your value is way less. But you never know like you said you might find some dumb kid to buy it. Put it on CL and see if anyone bites.

    Seriously? Is this a joke? Why specifically would your "MEXICAN" friend want it? Not sure why race was so important to mention...

    ¿Qué significa esto? Soy mexicana y no ver exactamente por qué su amigo mexicano le gustaría este camión.
