Looks GREAT! Be sure to post pics of the lift, as I'm sure you will.

I'm glad your truck looks very similar to mine, that way you can tell me how it looks! I'm excited for you! Good luck!

i donno yet, i dove from the tire store home. It took about a 1/2 hour to drive home (regular 10 min) because i hade to keep going in reverse on most turns.
Some turns i just drove over peoples lawns...lol

My truck will be parked untill the lift is installed on saturday.

I will deffinitally post pix for you guys.


and ya, thoes are 12.5 wide.


like zack said, that is my brothers lx. Good eye.

It was a 13 second car last year and since then he has bored out the block.
The rear end is to week to open it up so he hasnt taken it to the track yet/
