Well got a few more things done. I mounted the 02 crewcab seats, MAN what a difference. The rear still folds flat, TONS on legroom, one of the best mods so far. Pics up soon. Also settled on the rolling stock, 22.5's. YUP I know, big loud truck with a flat biller driving it belching black smoke all over everything. I know the thought that comes to most peoples minds but that isn't me. I got the wheels for a song, and a set of 39" tall by 10" wide tires cheap a few days later. However after some measuring I think I'm going to buy new tires in the 37X7" range. I believe they will "tuck" much better. Why did I choose 22.5's? Several reasons, load carrying capacity, height without the width, commercial design and service lift, easily sourceable in the middle of know where instead of trying to find a name brand big LT tire.
Ordered my custom made front 6" lift springs designed for my engine/bumper/winch weight. I'm travelling until the 1st march then I'm picking up my springs and going to start working on the lift. After that I'll sort out the rolling stock.
