BTG,
I hope the 821 doesn't lower it too much, we'll see (i'll post as soon as I get it on the truck, might be this weekend).
On the tires, i got got all new tires all the way around. 2 New steers and 4 new drive (traction) tires. All Toyo's M143 (steer) and M608Z (Drive or traction).
Im on diesel place all the time…
BKA,
Not really liking the bed lift idea. Good idea, but not in my plans. Thanks for the idea though.Noted on the pinion angles but 2-3 shouldnt change that much (I hope).
Bedlam,
Not sure how the fronts would act with the suspension fully compressed. Looks like there is plenty of room. Getting longer bumpstops is not a bad idea. I still think new springs are in the plans. Looks like the truck carried a lot of weight in its previous like. Taller tires were necessary in my opinion.
Love this forum… Keep it your comment coming.
Check this out… Snow in southern california, not in the mountains. This is near Temecula, in the City of Wildomar. Note the Kodiak full of snow. Love it, picture looks photoshopped.
