MORAINK,

What brand are your tube steps? And what series? I like them, just in mine would look better in stainless steel.

They are the Westin e-series. Acutally bought them off of amazon.com, they had the cheapest deal at the time.

Looks great. Did you go with the AAL or the blocks? I had my heart set on 285's but I think the 265's look great!

I appologize for the late reply, but I has to go with the blocks because I got the TSB done about a month before. I personally like the way the 265s look. I wanted to keep my mud flaps on even though some may think its corney (I'm all for as much protection as I can get for my paint). And with the 265s and 3" lift, my passenger side front tire will slightly rub my mudflap when in reverse and turning hard to the right.

Does it rub at all? Thats what I am thinking about doing! Though the 265/70's look better than I thought I would.

Has anyone heard of amtaccessories.com ?
I have the ez-liftsuspension 3" spacer lift I bought on ebay about 6 months ago, And have had a lot of problems with axels leaking and a clunk sound every time I drive over even a small bump in the road.
The amtaccessories sells Daystar and Pro Comp lifts and say with there lift my truck will still have a smooth ride and I wont have the problems I'm having now.
What do you guy think?

It doesnt rub when i turn my wheels either way and go forward,
but it does minor rubing when im in reverse . I did no trimming at all and its only rubbing in front under fender plastic , as you can see on photo , i went serious off roading and rear wheel was rubbing more then a front ...If i do a little trimming in the front i wouldnt have any problem at all ..because my wheels are 17X9 back spacing is 4.53” and offset is -12mm , so i have no frame or UCA rubbing problems....im 100% satisfied what i have

looks good, nice job!

285's have some draw backs like decreased acceleration & braking, lower gas mileage etc. but you dont get stuck as easy and its much harder to get in your truck after working 16 hours. Find myself using the "Jesus Christ!" handles more an more just to get in & out.
