Night and day from stock!! Just a few things can make a huge difference. Looks great!
Is that a Hunter brush guard? I plan on doing the same thing (already have 285's, Hunter brush guard, just need the 3" b-lift). Did you remount it or adjust it or is that just the same from stock?
As I said, I also have 285/75R16 BFG A/T's. Mine have a little over 5,000 and they're just too new to replace and you won't get what they're worth if you sell them. I airdown to 12 PSI and they hold extrememly well on to the stock 7" wide wheels. Great A/T's for offroading. After seeing your pics, I now know my tires wouldn't look too small with a 3" body lift. Thanks! And the truck's looking great! What else do you have planned for it?

well thanks guys!
1> The Brush Gaurd is of Unknown Brand but was told it was rhino, i payed 100 bucks for it.
2.> The Brush Gaurd is not fully mounted it has one bolt holding in it and a spot weld for saftey.
3.> In a few weeks i plan on cutting the bracket and making it look like it was when it was stock.
4.> The tires dont look that small but i got a deal on some tires that will be going on tomorrow.
5.> As for future mods. Finish up the bodylift (brush guard, gap gaurds)
then new tires, gears 4.88's, hood , Hopefully this time next year my Eaton M112 will be powering my Built 4.2.
Im planning on building a winch bumper alot like the road armor ones, and putting a 16.5ti or 12k self recovery winch in it.
Eventually ill put some wheels on it, not sure what yet but they will be 16's.
My last mod will be a Fatech lift and a soft cover for the bed, "kinda like a shell just soft" a roof rack, and some lights.

well i only plan on running them for a few months on stock gears then the 4.88's go in. That happens in September. If the truck is that bad to drive then ill take them off and put my BFG's on till i get the gears.
Plus in March of next year my Build up of a 4.2 will be complete and ill have a Eaton M112 to add some power!
My truck is an auto... but it does ok! But with F.I. and geared out it should be a blast to drive!
