You and me both...it's been too long since I've owned a lifted truck... I'll be putting them up for sale tomorrow...I was going to hold on to them, but I really could use the space they're gonna take up...and the money...lol

Isaac3384 · Apr 8, 2012

Thanks! Next on the list will be replacement bumpers with a swing out spare mount on the rear, an air compressor and tank under the bed, and a few more things to dress up the outside.

A&D Tire in Terrell, TX is the place to go for getting your tires balanced. They can handle anything up to 40". They can even use the old school bubble balance to get it close, then put it on the spin balancer. They did a great job!

This weekend (Saturday) is the Terrell Jubilee car show...if anyone is interested, come on out. It's a great time. After that, a few of us are heading to Crow's Mud Bogs in Kaufman...

About 2 months ago my EGR cooler took a dump, so I ordered River City Diesel's EGR delete and oil cooler upgrade. I originally wanted to do the head stud upgrade at the same time, but just couldn't get the money together.

After having issues with the military tires, I ended up doing some trading and picked up some 37" Super Swamper M16s. They ride a lot better than the military take-offs. The only issue I have is that they are on the stock wheels (for now) and the tires rub the leaf springs.

that looks so much better even with the stock wheels on it!!!

Thanks, Tonka.

Here's a couple pics after I got it all cleaned up last night.

I'm taking the wind deflectors off the hood and sunroof tonight. I honestly kinda like the ones on the windows.

I agree with tonka, Way better with the new tires and stock wheels!

Lowdown89 · Oct 11, 2012

It looks great with the stock wheels!

Isaac3384 · Oct 11, 2012

Thanks guys, I do too. Now I just need to order some spacers so my tires don't rub the leaf springs.

Anyone know what size spacers to use to gain the needed clearance?

Where can I order the spacers from?

looks mean

AKHILF · Oct 11, 2012

When does it rub? only at full lock? You can get spacers in the 1/4" so that should make it easy. But if you go 1" you have to cut the stock studs. At 2" you dont have to cut em.

Isaac3384 · Oct 12, 2012

Thanks southflstrokin.

It rubs just after 1 1/2 turns from center. I never paid any attention to what lock to lock is because I never had this problem...lol
