i have a some 215-50-16s think theyll fit....

also i have the front end pretty much ready to bag im in the process of cutting out the metal leading up to where the upper control arm bolts up so i can weld in my bag mounts when i get them and the bags.... im pretty sure once i finish removing that im almost positive it will lay out in the front the to the back which could prove to be a pain in my @$$

oh im also 6'3" to give you an ideaof where the truck sits

the front leaf spring perch is hitting the ground so the back wont go any lower yet tillt he 4-links ordered and i can cut the perchs off and the front still needs a lot of work

well after a long awaited time period i finally got my new motor anyone who has read my profile in the garage section know ive been planning on putting a ford 2.3 turbo motor in ... well after a long search lasting almost 2 years i found a motor in decent condition. this one dont need rebuilt yet it will get rebuilt later when i have a little extra cash.... but last night i worked on the truck till about 1 am gettin ready to pull the motor that will be finished today and hopefully well have the new motor mounts mocked up and the tranny mount mocked up.... ill take a few pics of the progress today
