Finally, pics of my rig.

Yep thats right, finally got my lazy ass to get some pics up on here. Sorry if any pics are blurry or anything, hands might have been a little twitchy . Here are some when it was stock(minus the front bumper caps). Sitting in my dads garage before install.




Starting to take things apart. Big help from my brother and his friend.



Putting the front together,





Starting on the rear. Started to get a little late.



Here it sits the next day when everything was said and done. Since then Ive trimmed more and will be removing the fog lights and last piece of the bumper skirt sometime soon.






More pics will come as time goes...or atleast thats whats planned . Its sitting outfront nice and muddy right now after a little test run through some bulldozer trails near my house. Word is that Scott will have photos of it next time we hit those trails.

All in all I couldnt be happier with the end result. Im glad I waited and did all the research, as well as freeloading from you guys a good amount. A big thanks to Ryan for giving me some retarted deals with the under carriage, its pretty much his rig from the rockers down. Not to mention Alex for the 8.25, which Ryan sold for him.

The run down:
RE 4.5" Short Arm Kit
Bilstein 5125 shocks
Locked and 4.56 geared d30 upfront with a SOLID diff cover
4.56 geared open 8.25 in the rear with a diff gaurd.
33x12.50R15 BFG KM2s
15x8 black steelies

Next will come an SYE, sliders, towing means, skids, trail equiptment, etc.
Hopefully Ill see you guys out on the trail soon.

Nicely done Lyle. I have a front reciever hitch that I need to pull to install a new front bumper. It does a nice job of stiffening the front end and providing a bomb proof recovery point. Let me know if you want it and it is yours for free.

BTW did that mosquito bite ever go away:laugh3:

Thanks for the offer, its either that or Scotts tow hooks when his bumper comes in.

Haha, and yes, my forehead no longer has a giant tumor on it. Thought I had west nile for a bit there...

PM me if you are interested.

youre gonna love that lift! I am still not dissapointed in mine. You were smart getting everything first, then installing it. Looks damn good btw. Im impressed. Cant wait to see you wheel and put some dents/scratches in it!!

PM me about the steering upgrade. I'll practically give it to you.

Keil

i have that same lift and love it
im running 33's and trimmed fenders and barley rub under full turn in the front fully flexed out

Looks good Lyle, let me know if you wanna get the matching front guard for the rear.

-Alex

Soooo nice! I remember a time when mine was that clean!

What size 5125's did you go with, and what adapters did you use?

Rig looks good! It makes me wonder what I did wrong when I was 17. :banghead:

Those are Ryans old shocks. And I just realized that you painted those axles Lyle, can you say mall rated?

-Alex

Km2's I'm jelous.

Yes...Lyle is a jerk for having enough money to get his sh!t right away. Bravo though, its a sick rig! I would have done the same if I had all the cash/know-how when I started.


Like said before...let's get some dents in her!

Haha, I painted them to cover up any rust. And yes, mall rated, but trail rated too . You cant lie though, they look good all perfectly black and such. Thats gonna change soon though.

-Lyle

P.S. How bout that matching red diff gaurd? Lol

Before the SYE get some sliders and really start to wheel that clean lookin thing. Nice job
