Need a good friend that owns a nice shop, painted all my junk for 100 bucks. Guy is awesome painter too.

I can paint it myself.. this color Is super hard to match, however I don't know that on the grill you would ever notice it..

Poked the 2" shackles in tonight. Took about 30 min with no lift and I had to use a jack.

Truck is factory height in the front and still has a perfect 1" rake

Are the bolts easy to get out? Looks like they were put in the wrong way lol. I think I'm going to throw my drop shackles in tonight.

Mine came out easy. Just have to take the bottom out first and then raise the axle up to the bed to get the top one out

"Small" shop got a name, looks pretty legit and awesome!

Not yet. Still affiliated with the family Goodyear that it's attached to. Gotta get some help and one day it'll have a name.. to busy right now to change things haha.

The circled is my shop. The rest of the building is my families Goodyear.. we do about anything mechanic related, I just do light duty diesels on my end of the world. I'm the only shop in town that specializes in diesel work other than the dealers.

Looks like a nice setup you have.

Going new from Ford on the short block?

A small but good diesel shop will bring in some good money in a secent area.

Your fam owns a tire shop & you ordered tires elsewhere? FOE be damned. LOL

Just saw this.. I'm all about saving a dollar when I can. The tires are actually "used" had like 500 miles on them and were perfect shape.
