if you still have it in about 4 weeks i might take the old bumper off your hands. i might take the tires too, the change in size really woke up the top end.

ok, that's cool....those tires are a little wider, and a little bigger, but not by much, I just had to go with a narrower tire, and a I just went a little lower profile to make sure I was gonna be able to lay it out. Now with the 22s I have to do a little modifying to the front to get it all the way down....it's only like an inch, but that's an inch too high!! :pimp:

needa give that thing a better stance.....give her about a 4/6 or a 5/7 drop....handling difference will be like night and day...won't be as "spongy", also put you at a little more aerodynamic position, vs. being like a big bus comin down the track!! :lol:

I still need to pull a trailer and put a 4 wheeler in the back. Could i still use it as a truck with a 5/7 drop?

definately bro....I can still use mine as a truck, and it lays on the ground!!! Only thing restricts me from putting my 4 wheeler in the back is not having my notch covered right now, that's why I want to get that done, I need to have my truck as a truck!!

In your case, you're not removing your hitch or bumper, so you can still pull a trailer with no problems, mine I have to put a hidden hitch behind the license plate box, which is still all in progress.....also, you're not cutting the bed for a notch with a 5/7 either....so the bed will remain as it is now.

that's cool....just be sure to do it right, and invest in the right parts to do it. If not, you'll face alignment issues, and lose ride quality. I just went through pics all I have is a front shot of mine at 5/7...but it does show the cover what it looked like painted....
