I only posted links to the pics to keep this short, sorry some pics didnt go through, will try to edit this this week
IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT DOING THIS MAKE SURE RADIATOR SOPPORT AND FRONT MOUNTS ARE SOLID, I have a mess ahead of me in the spring when it warms up, needs all new front clip, if you are going to try to do this pm me, i will give you my number, call and i will give you all the info you need to know

finished, like i said minus the bumper, have some hard core repairs in spring, so bumper will have to wait, prob ground down bumper and paint it all black from the chrome(rust) down, for now. and yes i know about the center cap, lost it wheeling in the mud in rochester, ny

so am I guessing correctly its finally done?

 

[dgray69]

yes, but opted not to do bumper yet, need to replace front clip, didnt was to have to work around the bumper being it will be direct welded to the frame

 

[walnuts4x4]

i do like it with the lift now you just need some "16x10" rims... lol and then some bigger tires

 

[97ExpGuy]

I see what you mean by your radiator support being rusted out. Overall, I like the lift and I'm glad you are done with it. I will thinking about this as well for the future...once college is done this spring. Thanks for shooting me a PM. Can't wait to see bigger rims and tires.

ummmm yeah walnuts, im working on that, but summers not getting here fast enough, i found a some lights, a hitch, and some rims, but the guy never gives me a shout back, *****, im loveing my truck, and 97expguy: im glad you took time to check it out, dam didnt realize my front bumper was so far off,time to crawl under and get that up where it belongs, pass side moved down while mounting it

 

[walnuts4x4]
