I didn't realize that you had put your 33s on stock rims. Most people go to 15x8s when they go over 31s. Unless they have Alcoas or something. Even Cragers or something.

I'm just blind and didn't know you had stayed stock wheels.

 

keep your 33s on it

 

Go bigger than 33's, start considering a gear swap....



Looks good. Do yourself a favor and grab a couple cans of quality flat black paint and paint the frame rails. I did mine a few months back when I was bored...started out painted just the e-brake line.....turned into painting the entire frame. Looks soooooo much better without stepbars on it.

Did you not get lift brackets for the bumper?

 

That looks good, even better when you're done with the bumpers!

 

Thank you, I didn't want to be the only one stressing that. I looked like a naysayer for sure.

I agree, painting my frame gave the truck a whole new life. Doesn't looks so rust belted.

 

Thanks for the heads up man, I appreciate it. Mine is a supercab, so let the search begin!

 

Man, truck looks really cool. Makes me want to lift mine... lol

 

Ya im still on stock wheels. I like them though

No I got lift brackets shane, im getting KLC's lvl 2 8.8 so I should be good there. I think I might as weel go ahead and paint the frame, but im going to need some step bars anyways cause my girlfriend had a hard time getting in it with just a suspension lift. I want to get some door actuated ones but I can't find any for our trucks.

 

Thanks for the complements guys. Oh and Al at the meet shadow905 and I have officially decided were making a road armor type of bumper for my truck

 

Awesome news! Can't wait for the meet!

 

Ya me either man.

Hopefully tomorrow I can get the bumpers lifted. Maybe some flex shots also

 

Be sure to make a stop in Oregon on your way back to TX to drop off Al's cab for me will ya.

 

Sure man. Ill besure to take plenty of pics and videos for ya

 

jealous, you suck! i need that LII rearend haha

 

Hahahah well isn't that the pot calling the kettle black. Thanks man. And I've been searching for the longest time for a lvl 2 rear end, so once I saw klc was selling his I was all over it

 

very nice. good to keep stuff in the ranger community. i love to here when one forumer buys a truck or big parts from another.

good luck with the swap. don't forget to find out a place need you to get some u-bolts made.

Thanks man. Ya just gotta save a lil cash. Im going to keep the 33s for a while though.

 

run them til you either find a good deal on 35s, or run your 33s bald, or both

 

Oh ya man definitely.

 

Did you put the retainer bracket on the A/C line.....if you didnt then you rubbed a good hole in your A/C line..there's a factory 13mm bolt on the pass. side right above the oil pan that you have to bolt the retainer bracket to..that you BL kit DIDNT come with...its a 1 1/2" conduit c-bracket/clap.
