Who did the work on the truck?

Yea I live in the eastlake area, a neighbor has a smoked one too with a BL, so I had to get one myself. I did most of the work in that garage and the body lift was done by ATF offroad on palomar st, they did a great job. see you around.

Thanks your truck b4 when it had the 37's was my inspiration, yea who needs a 4x4 in so cal, i dont think there's any swamps over here like the east coast and dirty south. But then again you do need it for the sand, but thats why you have buddies with 4x4's to pull your sorry a$$ out hahahaha.

your truck looks awesome man...love the tires/wheels/lift

my truck was 35k when i got it and i don't hesitate to take it through the nasty stuff...i bought the damn thing with 4x4 put mud tires on it and a leveling kit for a reason....if i didn't have the money to buy it and still have fun with it like i do then i would've bought a beater...different strokes i guess...i don't believe in babying **** and constantly worrying about it...its just a truck and 5 years from now i wont even have it but ill always remember all the fun times i had with it rather than memories of being scared that it might get a scratch

that's not directed towards you postal, just my view in general...i respect your choice in not taking your truck offroad...its not my truck, its yours and you can do whatever the hell you please with it as far as i'm concerned doesn't bother me either way

I already took it for a ride off road and the tires soak up the bumps real nice.

Looks sick! What kind of power loss did you experience going up to the 37's?

Yea, looks good and all but I agree with him, lifes to short to be worrying about getting scratches and what not, take it through the mud you can clean it up the point where no one can even tell it was ever in the mud, and about the whole 30k thats not that expensive for a truck to be worrying about getting a little scratch on it or a little bit of mud, theres people with alot more expensive cars that still wheel them and have fun with em, no point of a lift and mud tires if its gonna be cruising to the mall and back, this is exactly what gave hummer owners a bad name, they bought a 4x4 offroad truck and half of them were scared to use it, yet they lifted em and put offroad tires on but when people asked if they wheeled they just simply reply no, but then again its your truck, your life, you money, your worries not mine, oh and none of what i wrote was meant to be offensive in the slightest way, that is just my view on thing

I dont think it changed that much compared to my ATZ, braking is a little harder now.

Well the ATZ were an E load tire which mean there was no flex in the side walls at all, very stiff. And the ATZ are way wider so i can feel all the imperfections on the road. And my atz were a tad louder.

the toyo are an E load tire as well........
