    Workin' on it....
    I think the bigger tires definitely help with the look of the front end in this case though still not a fan of the grill or the headlights. That rear end though is pretty sweet.

    We are really excited about this build. We have some great support from some awesome companies. This is a SEMA build, so it is not stopping at lift and tires. We are doing a ton of custom work, so those of you that hate the big front grill will see it go away.
    The 3.5L motor is a step up in power from the 4.0L. It will still get up and go even with the 35's on it (we do plan to re-gear).

    2 inch lift. LED fog lights (Cali fab) Alpine head unit. Kicker door speakers. Skar subwoofer.
    That truck looks 100x better lifted. Espically the front, hated the grill at first but with those big tires and that color scheme, it looks amazing.

    I think the lift and tires totally compensate for the big grill. Makes it look like a bigger truck overall. Does the grill look weird on the stock truck? yes. but it seems to fit here

    Looks great! Nice job ToyTec! What' are they doing about the reduced approach angle caused by that front bumper.
