a little dirty she's a little dirty, but thought i'd put a few up anyway. It's amazing to me how the truck has been transformed in just a few (initial) steps...obviously this is the biggest one:

BTW - i ordered my stuff online from Discount Tires Direct. The salesman was knowledgeable, patient, and i got a good (package) deal. Mounted/balanced, lugs and center caps included. Showed up at my door ready to put on the truck. :bravo:

back on track... OK. Got my wheels/tires dilemma solved. I ordered black 16x8 Level 8 Strike 6 and 285/75/16 Hankook Dynapro M/T. Just got them mounted, and alignment done. Had to replace outer tie rod ends. It is driving nice and straight now.....and it looks absolutely perfect. Just what i...

Well, I called them, talked to a guy that got me all squared away...ordered Level 8 Strike 6 (black), with 285/75/16 Kumho Road Venture MT's. Mounted/balanced, lugs included, and shipped for free. Supposed to get them next week. Can't wait!! Thanks!:cheers:

I have seen many, many posts, build threads, etc. where guys have upgraded to 33" tires on a 16" rim. This is what i planned to do as well...wrong! Tried to buy some wheels online, but the guy told me I have "special" TRD brakes (rotors) that will not allow for a 16" rim. The stock wheels are...

Ya, I didn't want much lift either, so this is the route I went. I should mention that I have not done an alignment yet since the lift, and the camber is way out (+positive). I'm sure this is affecting the ride/handling. When I get the new wheels & tires on, I'll dothe alignment and give you an...

Yes, original springs...i was told they should still be good, but it does float a little. As soon as I get my...err...HIS, wheels and tires, I'm going to have an alignment done, which will check out all of the front end parts: control arms, ball joints, tie rod ends. Once that is all done, I'll...

:naughty:

I've been lurking for a month or so, and just now setup my account, etc. I'm going to start a build thread, but I'm really not sure how far I'll go. I read some of the threads, and it's pretty overwhelming. There is so much to do, so many ways, etc. Hopefully mine will be at least respectable...

is this truck still for sale?
