Finally finish with the rusty's 4" lift wit 33" all terrains. I am already thinking of body lifting it another two inches and thinking maybe about geting a 2" block for the rear and the rusty's add a leaf in the front but I am never satisfied lol. this will do for now.

I think it looks very nice, it has a good stance. Same color as my Chero too, only yours is in much better shape.

hey man thanks for pointing out my flaws lol.... i don't know i want to fix those rust trough points but i don't know how I should go about it i mean the floor boards are easy because i don't care if they are perfect cause i am going to slop bed liner on them but the exterior is a little more delicate matter. I am not sure if i should fiberglass it or bondo or go to a shop or what.

You'll definitely will want to see to those flares. The worse they'll get, the more difficult and expensive they'll be to fix.

The lift looks good, stance is perfect.

i like that rig alot. stance is sweet and it looks simple, classic nicely done. I am trying to keep it original looking but still have the ability to offroad. THe only thing non stockish I am going to do is get that circo rack they have on bj's. (http://www.bjsoffroad.com/cartgenie/prodInfo.asp?pid=735&cid=30 )I am currently searching for a grill guard that mounts over teh stock bumper but the only one i have found so far is on bj's and it is ugly.. As for the fender flares its only the rear driver's side that is bad with rust through but I don't know how to fix it. I was thinking about being lazy (and dropping a few bucks) on the bushwacker flares: (http://www.bjsoffroad.com/cartgenie/prodInfo.asp?pid=755&cid=8) (http://www.bjsoffroad.com/cartgenie/prodInfo.asp?pid=755&cid=8)

but IDK maybe a body shop can help me out... Thanks for the compliments all i'll post before and after pics when the rig is done. For an 800 dollar truck it isn't turning out so bad:drivin:

i would say its going well for that much. i would personally stay with the stock flares. but..... if you like the look of the pocker flares by all means go for it! im putting them on cherrigator. it shouldnt take much to fix the flares. you can probably have a body shop help you out on what to cut and patch.

so we went to go play with the flex and the front wheels don't spin like at all. at first we thought we were mistaken so we drove straight into a dirt mound and confirmed it the rear wheels spin but not the front. the lockers were on but no fricken' power was going to the wheels.......AHHHHHHHH:banghead: so now i got a new frustrating project to work on.
