Little bit o' Mud

Had to see how the truck threw mud after the body lift since the tires are almost completely out of the wheel well.

Enjoy!

I hate how the flares block mud at a certain angle... Your wider tires should fix that.

It's up to Justin. We didn't have time the last time I was up there, otherwise we might have. I want to though.

Sold the cap to help fund this project. $300 is what I got for it. And no, I didn't always have chrome bumpers front and rear. They're both "new."

I know. All in due time. Actually when funds roll in I'll get them.

Did you realize this is the same red edge that was at the Ohio meet? It's come a looong way from there. I was at Mid-5 one day but you weren't there. You can see your truck and mine in those pictures.

So far the wheels and tires are going to a friend with a YJ but he still needs to decide how much lift he wants. If he goes 4" he'll get 33's so if that's the case they will be for sale. As of now, you have dibs if he decides on 33's.

Yes. It has Chevy 6400 shackles in the rear and #1 torsion bars with 3 turns over factory.

It will be hopefully by this time next year. When I return from basic training and technical school I plan on trying to find a wrecked Ranger just like mine but 4x4. Then I'll go from there swapping out the parts onto my truck. I can't wait!

Hey Tyler, could you take a front on shot of your truck for me?? I want to see the angle of your lower control arms. I always feel my truck is way to short for what i've done to it.

They have a pretty good angle. But since I don't have a front diff/axle or related parts and I'm a 3.0 I don't have much weight over the front wheels. I'll take a picture tomorrow after work.
