I could probably use the hand in my avatar, but would like something more solid.

Could I get 44's under with a 6" lift? Anyone tried that?

I guess that depends on your perspective.

You installed a CB in your truck right? If so you can totally put a lift kit on, the difficulty is pretty much the same. Oh and well you have all the front end components off I would reccomend doing a solid front axle conversion, it only takes about and extra 15 minutes to install. Good luck Ken.

Thanks Carey, that's the type of info I'm looking for.

So should I go with the Big Mac lift or the Whopper? It's really confusing.

Only use the Whopper with the fufnik linkage. If you are not planning on that, stay with the Big Mac. 63" Pro Comps will fit with only slight modifications. Remove that big U shaped rod, it goes from one front wheel to the other. Not sure what it does, but it's not needed. While you are down there with the front end off, you ARE installing the solid front axle right, cut those long bars that are behind each wheel. A 6" cut is recommended. Pro Comps fit with no problem. Looks great in the mall parking lots. Curbs and speed bumps are no longer a problem. Shopping carts crumble with ease.

Enjoy.

OUCH!

I really want some of those 53" XZLs or XML or ZTL or PHTZLMTPEA>.>>>>>>........... whatever they are.

That's the main reason I want to get an old duece+.5 or 5-ton.... just so I can slap six of those babies on. I can get a set of six for about $750 delivered.

Can you share where they are available from? They were backordered everywhere last week.

[ssgharkness020147]

Whopper. The name speaks for itself Ken. Since, your going to be doing some really hardcore off roading I would reccomend wrapping the yolks of your U-Joints with plenty of hurricane tape. This way if you break one on the trail it will hold up long enough for you to finish your wheeling trip and drive home. That stuff has bailed me out tons of times.
