1.25" spacers installed at around 3am last night... Neighbours weren't too happy at me cutting studs. Just needed a bit more road attitude on the truck.

well big step in the black truck was made this past weekend, I got a replacement motor for her and spent all day yesterday tearing the motor down and replaced all gaskets, plugs, coils, oil and sensors since its out of the truck anyways, also went through and thoroughly cleaned the motor from top to bottom including the throttle body so it looks almost new again, and just for fun, I stuck my company's instagram logo on both valve covers :naughty:

How long did the tear down and rebuild take?

haha I meant off the studs to fit the spacers



My bad lol made the cut around 3 threads from the end. Enough to make it all the way through the new nuts, would definitely gone with 1.5" if I knew how much work it took.

Really bored at work here and got curious. Have any of you lowered guys thought about doing the bulge fenders as a wide body kit? Seems like you could get those tires y'all want and tuck em nicely with the bulge in there.
Like I said bored and got curious and nothing popped up when I googled it

same amount of work to tuck with those too, its not the fenders that stop us, its all the metal behind them that keeps us from tucking haha
