Thanks, I have a set of your shackle flips on the rear of this truck. This truck has a set of 6" springs and a 1" zero rate on the front, with the 4" shackle flips and 4" lift blocks in the rear. The truck also has an ORD 1" body lift. Right now it only has a set of 35" Maxxis Mudders, which still have a lot of tread left on them. After they wear out I am going with a set of 13/36-16 Interco Bias Ply Super Swampers, which will be 1" taller and 1" wider. I could stuff a set of 38" under this truck, but I would rather keep a lot of tire clearance under this truck.
 
Nice truck :whistle:

I want that 454 TBI out of your truck :D. Mine only has a small block in it for now, but I will go to a Big Block someday. That is, as long as WWIII doesn't start, and gas goes to $20 a gallon :(.

I want to see the entire length of the door... closed... most front part to the back of the cab to see how long it is so I can measure my truck.... gonna do a crew cab next year and just thought about this....

wow... looks like when I do my swap it is gonna be fun... gonna have to figure out how to do that... but where do I put my gas fill tubes!!!! :doah:

There's tons of little details like that. You can't use your saddle bag tank(s) so you have to use a suburban/blazer tank or a fuel cell. I put a 40 gallon suburban tank in, cut a "trap door" in the floor of the box so it would fit since I set the tank higher in the frame than stock for axle clearance. The filler hose is just dangling around back there too :) All little details that will be addressed some day
