    So I'm in the looks of getting a DCSB in the future
    I like the way your lift looks on the truck

    3 things
    1. How much of a lift do you have on your truck?
    2. What exactly do you have on (suspension wise) right now?
    3. What's your MPG like

    The suspension of the 5-lug compared to the 6-lug is entirely different
    I read your build but could figure out exactly everything you did for suspension

    Your truck looks absolutely badass! I dig it :cool:

    I'm curious if you have any problems with tire rub. There aren't many people running 305/70-17's with a 3" to 4" coilover lift. I see that you have done the cab frame mod/chop and trimmed some plastic. Still, most of the people you see with that size tire have a 4" to 6" drop bracket lift.


    When you are turning while compressing the front suspension, do you rub?


    Also, I vote for the black wheels. Leave the plastidip on there. [​IMG]

    Hey guys. Sorry its been so long without a response. I have been in some army training for some months now.

    My lift is sort of odd right now. It was 885's, but the 885s were a bad batch and settled, so I had to throw a top plate spacer on it to compensate. As of right now my lift is just under 3".

    Regarding the tires, im running a 17x9 rim with 4.5bs. I did do the cab mount chop because I was rubbing excessively..... as in, I could barely turn the truck. So after the cab chop I trimmed a bit of the wheel well lining and some off of the flare on the front bumper.

    I dont rub at all during normal driving even when im full lock. When im out wheeling it and I get into an off camber position, they will compress and pop the clips off the fender flares. The rear is really no issue.

    Im available readily now, so if you have any other questions feel free to shoot them over and ill respond as promptly as I can.

    Sorry I missed your pm dude!

    Love the truck, well done. I'm thinking about 285/75/16's. How did those rub compared to the 305/70/17's you have?
    Thanks
