Just regular maintenance for now, but I'm up for suggestions, though my knowledge on most doesn't go much beyond oil changes, etc. Time to learn cause I'm stuck with doing it myself for awhile.

That's a good one to start modding! Nice truck!

I'd say spindle lift and some 32-33's! Can't go wrong with lifting IMO.

Not sure what a spindle lift is? If it makes going down dirt road while hunting better I may need to look into it. Especially since I dont have 4x4.

A spindle is part of your front suspension and a spindle lift is 3" bigger then your stock spindle thus giving you a lift.

Well thank u for that I have them installed on my truck love the look also have few questions if that's ok was wondering how to start my own post 2nd I have 33/12.5/15's on my truck and now I have a steering wheel vibration starting around 45mph and higher had the tires rebalanced twice now rotated them checked ball joints tie rods inner and outer and the power steering still nice and tight and the fluid is clean well as it should be the only thing I could find is a little play in the steering shaft under the hood ?
