What kind of mpg are you seeing with tires that large? My 2wd is mainly a daily driver because it gets good gas mileage, but I can't stand the stock wheels.

Great build!

Looking great, your doing alot of work making it better, One thing I noticed is the wiper arms are crappy, take them off and repaint them, will look like new, mine in my 93 when I got it last May were nasty and rusty and missing the nut covers and got new nut covers from pick-n-pull and had the crappy dual wiper blades on it, I stripped/sanded them down to the bare metal and in an afternoon and a can of gloss black spay paint and wa la brand new looking wiper arms :} If you already did that since your last posted pic of your truck just ignore me :}LOL
Check out my build too if you want :}

Hey, I stumbled across this build thread a few days ago. I had to ask, do you have any videos of the performance of the truck after all of these improvements? Just on the trails you were talking about. I'm trying to build my truck up and yours is sort of my goal. I have an 89 pickup but it should look fairly similar.

So far I've already decided to do the SDORI 1.5" Ball Joint spacers w/ the Control arm Brace and the Sway-a-Way Torsion Bars. At that point I'll determine if I need the Pro Comp Add a Leaf or if it works for me. I have 215-75-15 tires so it might be a good idea. I'm putting in a cold air intake this week and plan to do an exhaust system on it later. Also, how did you set up the hidden antenna?
