he had 42" TSLs with custom Alcan springs. Think it was about 4" of lift but I don't know for certain.

In the pictures below I had 38.5 TSL SX's with 4" Tuff Country's up front and a shackle flip in the rear, no body lift...
In the pictures below I had 42" TSL's, custom 6" Alcan springs that moved the axle forward 2" and custom alcan rear that moved the axle back 3", no body lift...
Hope this helps.

truggied and all, haha. I always admired Pete's rig, and did see it in person, it was as cool person(even just sitting in his driveway). There was a time I strived to build mine to be pretty much the samething. Wish I had kept that goal with my K5s as well. Oh well the past is the past and we have what we have now.

Question, in the first fender pic it looks like you have no inner fenders. Did you have any problems with debris in the engine compartment? I know on a muddy day I'm scrapeing 1/2" of garbage off my inner fender on my daily driver and that's just from driving the cemetery roads. Do you just waterproof the engine compartment and hose it out?
