    It’s bagged. I can drive pretty high. Not stock but definitely high enough to get over most situations.

    I went with a narrow for fitment. So I can air out and not hit my fenders or bedsides. This is a show truck and never speed anymore. 65mph is the highest I drive. But yes when I stomp on it it gets squirrely. it’s for looks not for going fast anymore but when it was stock just my supercharger and static dropped, I put quite a few cars to shame. But this was 2001 and no where near as fast as these cars today. So don’t test me cuz we can get down on the freeway if needed but I avoid that. Not for fear of a ticket but causing an accident.

    For what part? I bought the truck and had the dealer install the supercharger and body kit. Then a speed shop in Virginia put my springs and blocks in.

    but the air suspension was 75% just me and my buddy welded.

    the wheels were done by Lee Cruz. His IG is chamorroboy86

    Good to hear from you,

    I bet its gets out of hand quick alright! Even with my basically stock 4 cylinder it will spin the tires waaay to easily.. I am looking into a limited slip differential for my next upgrade as we type. :thumbsup:

    I like going fast and being safe too, so I do it on the autocross course nowadays since it is ultra safe running solo in a parking lot around cones. I am in So Cal and would love to see your truck in action if you ever get the itch again. They have an event every month at Fontana Auto Club Speedway I have been to twice now. Check out a vid of my first time trying it out here!

    I know, you said your truck is retired to only show duty.. but werent you looking into a regular cab too a while back?!

    Read a thread about my experience here too!
