THE LIFT IS INSTALLED
I finally got the truck back together and was able to drive it around. It has been apart for almost 3 weeks. It is amazing all the stuff you find wrong when you do stuff like this. It now has a new radiator, new thermostat, new upper rad hose, new fan shroud, new brake hoses, new pads and shoes, freshly turned rotors and drums, new wheels cyls, new rear brake lines on the axle, and new poly body mounts. It has a 3 inch body lift and 3.5 inch add a leafs all the way around. I had to create new rear body mounts. Oh yeh, I swapped the wheels off my parts jeep over, but haven't gotten my 33's on it yet. The tires on it are only 265/75r15. Drives better and rides smoother then stock but I think that has to do with the rancho 5000's (shocks and steering stabalizer). By the end of the month, it should be steered by a S-10 box.

The dodge isn't mine, it is a wrecked repo I am putting back together for someone. It is sitting on 35's. All other vehicles belong to me and my Dad. 2 additional vehicles are not in the pictures.

Amazing what a lift can do for the appearance. Your rig looks great.

The tape on the back window is because a storm broke the window regulator. Dunno how, didn't break the glass, just the regulator. I should have everything here to fix it when time allows.

Finally got a chance to verify the speedo with a GPS unit today. Within 2 mph all the way to 60 mph. I can definitely live with that.
Fix the cruise, install a radio, and I might put some miles on this thing.
