how about another restoration?
I've been busy the last 2 months restoring my suspension, lifting the truck a bit, and restoring my frame ect.
Here are some pics to show you the progress: Theres a bunch of before and after pics scattered in those links. I still have to put the bed back on and get my black rims and 35 inch tires on.

how do you figure? you can lift a truck all you want but your not going to gain any ground clearance without bigger tires... your axles are still going to be the same height. the only reason you lift a truck is to clear bigger tires because tires are the only thing that puts your axles higher off the ground.
