8-2008 lift kit.  Lifted the truck while rebuilding the front end by installing 454 front coil springs (I have a small block) and adding 1.5" lift blocks in the rear.  Had to get a new steering box because the hit was hard enough it wrecked that too.  Far int he future but now it has 275/70R18 tires on it that fit with no scrubbing.

The splash shields for the disc brakes were so nice i just cleaned them and they still had the galvanizing visible.  now you know how they looked factory.
