She is really straight except for a little patch of rust on the passenger rear wheel well. I am going to pull off the camper and the running boards so if you live in alaska and want em i will have them at a price you wont be able to refuse. Anyways, I am going for a certain look, and i need some of your opinions so i can get it there. i have been scouring this site for the last few days(I am deployed in Afghanistan and we are winding operations down here so there is not alot to do right now)and have found a pic of some one elses truck and really want to match the lift height and tire size.

here is the pic

I love how this is still stock looking but sits a little higher. Is this the 2.5 inch lift with stock tire sizes or something else all together. your opinions would be greatly appreciated. I will keep ya'll updated on the progress of my new project here is my list of things that i wasnt to happen to this bad boy:

-Slight suspension lift (probably 2.5 inch)
-Get some new stock steel wheels and hub caps
-New rear bumper
-Get rid of bench seeat up front and replace with bucket seats and center console.
-Banks turbo charger
-Possibly new paint, once i get home and see it in person.



I am open to any suggestions and will gladly take any advice on these trucks that i can.
