I went from a worn out trac bar to a DT Profab on my '00 and HOLY CRAP.
Thing turned into a Corvette! (seemingly). One of the best mods I did!

Just finished reading your thread and you got a pretty sweet rig or should I say your gal does! Was just wondering what exactly your wheel and tires setup you went with? Like offset, backspacing, size and if you ended up putting in that 1/4 spacer?
Looking good though!

 

[Stangshcky12]

They are 17x9 XD Strikes with -24mm offset, I think 4.5" backspace
Tires are 315/70/17 mastercraft courser at

No spacers anymore, the tires did rub a bit on the lower fender with just the 2" spacers but the track bar and bending the pinch weld a bit took care of it except when stuffing the tire into the fender while turning

Trucks look great bud. Do you have a right up on how to instal the back up lights?

 

[Stangshcky12]

I don't have any back up lights installed yet but it's on the list
I had an led light strip below her tailgate that got broken, I just had the reverse wire jammed into the reverse bulb socket

If I were installing back up lights I'd tap into the violet wire with black tracer in the trailer wiring harness that plugs into the back of the 7pin mounted in the bumper for power

Oh no I was talking about the light bar reverse LEDs. I figured it out today and installed it.
