As for 44s on the road, there is a guy with an early 70's ford running around near me that wears 44s. Pure pavement queen though. In maybe 10ish years it has had 3 different paint jobs and atleast 4 sets of tires and wheels. Looked like it was on 20's last time I saw it too.
I'd love to sport a DD with some big ole boggers. My boys would love it. Maybe if I move to Idaho. I hear there's not a whole lot of laws up there for lifted trucks.
Yes, I do hate your truck. Big and noisy public menace it is!You guys must hate my truck then....
Funny you say Idaho, cause my wife and I are seriously considering moving there in the next couple years. I spent some time there and loved it, and my wife grew up there, so she would go back in a heartbeat. And no, Idaho doesn't have a whole lot of laws about vehicles on the street...pretty much anything goes

You say that jokingly, but some people truly believe that. When we were coming home from out last trip to Chinaman's a couple months ago (with you) I had a guy in a Prius pass me on hwy 285 and flip me off (and it wasn't cause I was slowing people down as it was a flat area of the road, and he was hauling a$$). The only thing we could think is he thought I was destroying the earth by having such an atrocious vehicle. Good thing we didn't catch up to him at a stop somewhere....I might of had to do something about his gesture
. But everytime I tow my blazer around, I either get thumbs up from rednecks, or soccer mom's look at me like they are going to die if they are anywhere near me....so stupid
Exactly why I pick my kid up at school in my truck whenever possible. Most dig it but some Moms are horrified by it.....lol
My Cherokee has hood pins, so everyone is horrified by it...

Rig is looking real good @Justin V . I hear you on the emissions crap. I live in Douglas County and we have emissions here too. I dealt with it on my blazer back when it was street legal and it freaking sucked. I am also going to have to deal with it real soon on my crew cab. Since I did a motor swap I have to go down to the county and fill out paperwork on the motor swap...it's a freaking hassel. My next house will NOT be in a emissions county, weather in CO or any other state I might move to. If I wasn't in an emissions county, I would keep my blazer with plates on it....cause everybody likes seeing/hearing 44" boggers howling down the road, bahaha
I like your cut outs too. I was mainly referring to the sloppy angular type.
Been mulling over adding some tow hooks to the front somewhere, but ideas are limited. I have a set of front hooks from an 81-87 (91), and some tow "rings" from a 99ish F-150. With no sway bar, I was thinking of mounting the chevy set to the sway bar cross member, just not so sure that it would be strong enough to pull from.
Chevy set first, ford second.

I mounted a couple of these to my frame in the rear so I had something back there.

I would advise against the Chevy ones unless you go with the good older hooks like they used in the 70's
Ford is an expert in getting pulled... lol
(Anyone in here that's actually a Ford guy, it's all in fun)
But seriously the Ford pieces look beefy.

You guys want to hear a Chevy joke??? Hold on. I'm workin on it.
Ok, so I have to derail some too,,
I dropped my son off at middle school several years ago in my '70 big block truck.
A girl told him when he got out the he was a big polluter! His buddy said her mom must drive a Prius....

My cahones aren't big enough to do that in a school parking lot, even if I had known at the time!
