Re: johnboy's thread
It won't work worth a **** with it crooked. The short story is for it to be safe you need to raise the steering the same amount you raised the control arms. And yes, this means notching the frame for the steering.

Re: johnboy's thread
Just my opinion, but I like the first set. The second set look like they belong on some football players otherwise-stock Escalade. Too much bling for me. Besides, you don't need 22 inch hoops to prove you know what you're doing. Your damn truck is already railin'!
