What size tires are on the back in that pic? Did you move the leaf springs to the inside of the frame rails?

:mrgreen: Yeah especially sice I'm so traction limited. I was thinking about moving them to the inside of the frame. Don't really want to do 4 link but it's an option.

So are you down to just the main spring now. I hate that this phone won't open photobucket videos. I'd like to tuck 33" tires back there.

Dude! Cool truck! If it were me though, the angle of the stack would be just a tad higher than the bed line. Awesome!

So have you been able to get it to hook without blowing the tires off yet? Whos injectors are you running? I have a buddy that gave me a 5 lug D60 I'm thinking of throwing a spool in and putting under mine. I was going to cut down the 3.07 D70 but may just do the D60 to save some coin.
