Very nice rig! The crawlers really do look great. You're sitting nice and wide too. I'm wondering if they plated the wheels to acheive your desired backspacing (almost like adding wheel spacers) thus requiring longer studs. What is the measured backspace?

The Backspacing was made to order at 3.5" of BS, plus its a 10" rim vs stock 8" w/ 4.5" of bs.
So I got an extra 1" of material left on the wheel which caused me to be an inch short on the wheel studs. I figured If im gonna go high, I might as well widen it out a bit.
How does your truck fair with no fender flares, and the 3" body lift? Id like to do the 3" body lift also, But have read that you have to lengthin things like your stearing shaft, brakelines, ect.
Any pros and cons you can give about that?
Thanks

Yeah it's a lot of mods to do the 3". I hear the 2" isn't too bad compared. I know some guys who still have their flares and wheel pretty hard. I bashed mine against several trees the first year so I immediately removed them 
I'm very happy with my body lift and 6" Slee springs. Now all I need to do is mod the front control arms and I'll be set!

Very nice, I love the tires.

Yeah, It was a lot of fun, broke in the lift and tires. No worries on stability, I felt safe the whole way through. I did have to remove the rear drivers side fender flare to run the harder sections, but it was well worth it. Cant wait to get the vid going up that steep section. After I put in the 3" body lift, rubbing shouldent be a problem anymore.
Thanks for the run, I had a great time,
