Cool Thanks for the comments!

Thanks for the comments guys, I am really happy with the way this turned out! Again, I gotta thank the website and you guys for helping me choose all this stuff.

Johnny Rubber: I was in the same decision that you were. I am not a huge off-roader, the only major off-road my truck has seen is going to the motocross track. I had decided on the All Terrain KO's...then I saw some pictures of the trucks on here with the KM2's like mSaLL150...they just looked too good not to get. I am happy with my decision now, but I only have 30 miles on them at this time...but no regrets!

Nemisus: You guessed it; I had no cam bolts, no u-bolt nuts, a missing bracket and two missing spacers (diff and crossmember spacer). Very random. I must've inventoried the stuff 4 times after I got it, I thought they flew out of the box and rolled away ....too bad my truck was already apart in anticipation. Fabtech was really good about making up the missing parts, it just delayed me a little... Also, I will check my tranny later. Since I had all those missing parts though, I put on that spacer before I lowered the rear axle so my driveshaft stayed in place...

Richard D: I think some flares may be in my future. The two tone truck just leaves me with no clear decision on the color to paint...thinking of leaving the black like the stock "flares" the truck has on.

Thanks again guys!
