road legal?
Looks good but I can see it being a certification nightmare
Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them

Correct in this photo it has no body lift, only the torsions jacked a mile high and the front gaurd trimmed at the back, and the front bumper trim also beiong trimmed.
Yea the 30/9.5 spare doesnt quite match haha.
Certification is potentially a disaster yes, but im far from complete with the truck so will see how i go. I have contacted a couple of cert guys to avoid big no go zones so will see.
As it is with 35s if i was to just put gaurd flares on, and maybe take wheel spacers out, i thought maybe i woukld be ok?

I wonder how much more stuff will be broken when on 35s compared to 33s.
Looks fantastic though.
