    it would be different if your truck was solid axle with 35's......but as your truck is now......i say it looks like you bought it off someone like that in Tijuana

    I like that color green but it just doesn't work, IMHO. Looks too 80s to me. Still, it's your truck and you like it then that's all that matters. I give you credit for trying!!
