So I was hoping to pull it off, and the factory wheels definitely helped with that for sure. I think they look great with the extra offset to get the stance I wanted.

Thanks again for all the support and great comments!
You are more than welcome, buddy! It gave me a little something to look forward to and get excited about the last few weeks and days. I'm glad it come out the way you had hoped for and that you're happy with it.

I gotta live vicariously through others while my mods are on hold (not really if I can help it!) for school. I gotta satisfy "the itch" somehow! Haha

The truck look's great...no need for tires right now because the Duratracs look great on the stock wheel's. Hope the ride is OK for everyday use. Look's like you nailed it again!!

Looks fantastic Dawg! I love the stance. How much lift did they set the coils at? Looks like you gained quite a bit of lift with them. I have a feeling I am going to love the 2" spacers once I get them.

Why would your wife not like a camper top? Haha they ain't my cup of tea, but I don't think any of the girlfriends would have objected

You're really making me want to get one of those bumpers right now.

Truck looks freakin awesome man!

Can't wait to hear how she rides after the rear Fox's are installed.

She couldn't care less about the looks, but the cost? That's a different story.

Roger that. Dammit, Dawg! You've potentially put a big ol' dent into my slush fund!

I almost edited my question to include cost, but I didn't think it from the way you wrote it. But I was wrong, of course!

Truck items and their funding are kept seperate from all other spending, and the re-allocation of funds to the truck fund shall not be questioned!

Thanks PawPaw! i agree; the Duratracs look better than I expected and may run them for awhile. But I did park next to a Raptor today that had a new set of the Toyo AT II Extremes in a 35-inch size and thought they looked really good. finally got to see those in person and might have to reconsider!

Thanks Curtis; according to Desert Rat, they did not adjust them any further than what Fox had them set at. They measured the total lift right at 3 inches which is what I had hoped for.
