I'v worked for the anchorage shop for 3 years. I havnt heard of them changing the name, and I really dont think they did. We have a kenai shop also.

Cant wait to see a pic of them on the truck.

Those are far from bling, at least in my eyes. But i understand your point. Only thing i have been running for the longest time are MT classic 2's

Yeah, I dunno...If it does not add power or enhance function somehow I have a hard time justifying it.


Well, there hasn't been any picture worthy progress made. I was able to get the bed almost ready for paint. Have I mentioned how much I dislike body work?? Hard to stay motivated to finish filling and sanding, but it should be ready for paint this weekend. I did however test fit a wheel to get an idea how they will fit.

Should look aiight...

Since I will have a tonneau cover, and refuse to have any electronics in the bed (that sh!t will never work at -40) I kept the handle.

Bed is back on....

Never thought of that!

Probably why that tailgate was so jacked up to begin with.

I ran into some issues with the tool box, so in the meantime I was able to get the wheels mounted up and the rear leaf springs modified for a smoother ride.

I will wait to give my opinions, I am way out of my comfort zone now. What do you guys think?

I think the wheels look good! I'd be worried about chucking rocks across your paint with the offset though. Maybe run some of those big rubber flaps that hang out wider than the wheel well and start at the 12 o'clock position you see around here? Looks like they could easily be removed for summer...
