4" pro comp all spring lift, 35/1250/15 BFG A/Ts. I know she still needs some body work, she's a work in progress :)

Thanks. Its an 81, 82. Those mud flaps are removed by a pin & cotter pin. Makes for good roosters.:D

Man that's too cool. I bet it's good for hauling lawn mowers and ATVs and stuff like that. All you need is a pair of ramps.
 
Maybe I can help too. My truck has gone through a few stages.

Thanks. trying to keep it looking 'stockish' so the Cummins and Duramax guys leave me alone :whistle:
 
Probably more debatable in here but......I've slowly been dropping the tire sizes and lift.

In Order.

37" on 15x10 aluminum wheels, 2.5" lift
35" on 15x10 aluminum wheels, 2.5" lift
33" on 15x8 Rally Wheels, 2.5" lift
33" on 15x8 Rally Wheels, stock height (or maybe 1"). 3 leaf factory up front and 1" overload spring on bottom of spring pack.

From what I've learned he probably had to machine the hub opening to fit, because the new stuff has very small openings.
