ya even 37's will be small... thats saying something haha... big effin truck!!!!!!!!! was just thinking if 39.5's wont like the D44 and since its a DD just find some used 37's and run them (even though they are a little small) until you find a D60.. then get some 39.5's. just a thought.. haha

my sister's bf's truck (95 F150) has a 6 inch lift and 35's and im 5'6" and the top of the fenders is at my chin.. so i cant imagine how big your truck is...

get rid of your stock blocks in the rear and adjust your front coilovers down about 2 inches and it will be perfect! no need for blocks on that big or a truck

the body lift is staying on. i want the extra room for when i do a v8 swap.

i think the height is perfect. the only way im going to lower it down is if i keep getting pulled over, or its not practical for me.

i started working on my steering. im doing the E250/4runner shaft and toyota box that beard posted awhile back. the only issue im having is that when i put my shock hoops on, i put them too close to the frame, so when i turn, the cardan joint hits the hoop. what im doing to fix this is extending the splined end buy cutting the splined part out, welding a tube in and welding the splined end on the tube. i did one attempt already but got some binding from not being welded perfectly strait.

here is a quick paint picture to help explain.




and i had the truck outside for the first time since september, so i snapped a few pictures.
