What size rims are you putting them on? Are they 16.5's like millitary wheels?

these are 11x16. The next step up is 11x20 and they are about 44" tall. Maybe a bit big for the dodge

The front fenders are going way back. Rockers cut off all around. 1/4 panels going but roof/windows/gates staying. Rear axle back a bit, just enought to get it recenterted after the lift, then lenghten all the arms out.

Rockers cut off? Tucked high sliders to replace them?

Maybe. I think some 3" x 1" x 1/8" wall tube weled into place as a built in slider. Weighs a lot less and I gain 4"+ on ground clearance.

While you have the axles out, you might as well paint em pink, big boy!

Better yet, I'll send Nolen the paint to make sure the job gets done. Seems to me he never got you back for painting Kate's pumpkins at KRocks '05.

Well, Nolen did "try" and get me back. I must say it was a lttle weird when he grabbed my balls in front of Ms Kruze. I am not sure he noticed when I painted the wheels of his trailer pink. I am sure he is pissed about that.

so we (mike) removed the fenders and got to cutting. The inside was cut into strips then a 1/4" rod was welded over it to give it some strenght. We then used aluminum tape to fill the "pie" slices. This will get herculined and sealed later
