Where did you get t he boots from? Were they a kit? I tried replacement shafts from flee bay and both leak grease, have to replace the clamps... Figured I would replace the boots on the front shafts.
Thanks,
Matt

I looked up the correct boots from various suppliers and sourced from ebay. Cheap but a bit of work.

I got my front end a little higher off the ground. Still has more rake than I want but it’s better.

Your rake looks good from this angle. Are you trying to level it out? Not so sure that would be the ideal set up if you plan to load it up some or tow. What are you doing to change it ?

Nothing special. Just some spring spacers that go on top of the coil springs. I picked them up from Matt Speed at customer m combat trucks a year or so ago. Just now getting around to putting them on.
The rake is a little worse in person than it looks in the picture. There is not much chance I will so anything else to it. I don’t want to do a body lift and the 12k Springs don’t sound good for my back. I may toss a couple of sand bags in the back to help a little with traction this winter. That will be the extent of it.
Next up hanging the front winch and plumbing up the rear winch.

Very cool look! For fancy wheels, those aren't priced too bad! I might get a set some day specifically for street use of a more economical tire. Still want to keep the 12/24 bolt 2 piece rims with run flats for any kind of rough stuff, though.
Thanks for sharing!

Actual tube doors never existed in the wild. Some people have fabricated them but they are one off pieces. Some people recently are cutting down soft door frames and making half doors let me get you where you need to be.

Very nice. That is the setup I am planning to go with except maybe 17". 20's look good though.
37's?
