Very nice truck, so my question is what kind of sport mirrors are you using?

Thats about what I was thinking I want to use.

OK, for you guys with 5.5-6" rear drops, have you done anything different with your carrier bearings? Mine's breaking due to driveline deflection because of the angles. I'm thinking about pulling the blocks and picking the back up a couple inches, but it looks soooo right now....

you can drill out the rivets in the carrier bearing mount and install it upside down. THat helps with the angle. I was bagging my truck and did that and the angle of the driveshaft was fine with an approx 9" drop.

anybody got a before/after pic so I can visualize this? it's an act of congress to get the truck up high enough to look under it....

Here you can see the old holes and the new position....

I did not take one pic of it, as soon as the wrecker dropped off the rollback i cut it up with the blue tip wrench, kinda helped with the built up aggresion. I had a lot of time in that truck, body and paint is all it needed. I have started over now with a porter built front crossmember so it will never happen again. It is funny when you here people say they " rail the truck while driving" that means drag the frame in normal english. Don't do it. You will end up in the hospital like i did.

You've got a super nice sharp truck. What I like about is that it has the modern and traditional looks which is a very nice combo. .

They are Boss 338 wheels, if you do a search for "Boss 338" there is a few threads on them. There is also a group buy thread with some good deals on them. Not sure if they are still doing the group buy but Brossow and Sublvr were heading it up, good guys.

20x8.5 with 5.25" BS front and 20x10 6.25" BS in the rear, But I had to run a 1" spacer in the rear to clear the inner fender so it is a 5.25" BS with the spacer.
