De-Redneckification of Mr Pate's 03 Duramax

Correct that pic is 15x14 typhoons and 31 boggers. So badass, James is going to have the same look with 33s and 16.5s
 
So you're potentially gonna be at 12-14" of lift to achieve that amount of skating? Gonna look sick

Boggers look like 31s to me

Holy fuck you're gonna skate 38s?? :mjpopcorn:

IIRC Darren's setup is 15x14s and 31" boggers

Ah must have misread it some where on his profile.

Well that's good then because it makes me feel even better about 33s.

Plan is to skate 38s lol. Next time I get tires for the 24s Im going to get 37s. But first set of tires I buy will be for the welds
 
Another photoless update but front lift/swap is completely built. Now taking it to a buddies shop and we are going to swap in the rear ford axle. Then after that's done it'll be time for tare down.
 
Well the truck has been home for about 2 weeks. Trying to work out kinks. On the way home truck had bad wobble and the batteries died about 1/4 the way home. Since its been home I have replaced the bushings in the axle where the link arms connect and fried my ppe lift pump lol. So I have a fass system on its way. Hopefully the only thing left is fix the pinion angle and get the right geometry on the link arms and the front should be done. Also bought a set of small mirrors that will be color matched with a chrome cap. Some pics from facebook

So glad you are doing those mirrors! Can't wait to see it!

Yea I cant wait to have them painted! Only thing they don't have is the puddle lamps, but I bought 2 flush mount leds for each side.

In the passenger mirror....that sum bitch is TOWERING over those tires. Yes.

Haha yea I told my buddy who built the lift that I wanted the tires to sit under the truck lol Its about 68 inches frm the ground to the bottom of the tow mirror.
 
My buddy Spencer who built the suspension posted some of the parts that he built on his instagram.

Still waiting on a lift pump. Ordered it through a friend who said the company will charge my card once they ship it and still haven't been charged so patiently waiting. Then hopefully adjust the angles of everything for one last time and take it for a ride.
