Waited for the truck to settle before posting good pics. Finally got the spindles and all installed. 22" boss motorsport wheels with 265/35/22s. Handling is amazing, spindles size and weight attributed to much of the increase in cornering i am sure. Great job of steel work on Mcgaughys part. Hope you guys like
Looks good, although I think a little larger tire would look better. Too much wheel well gap. Is the back lower than the front or is it the angle of the pics?

Overall it looks really good though.
265/40s rubbed the front fenders on hard cornering. wheel well gap is only about an inch and a half up front, and the back actually sits higher than the front. once again it is one of those things where pictures dont do justice. many times this weekend i have pulled up to intersections and read the people lips beside me as they expressed there disbelief....sh*t dude!!
24s with 295/35s would not fit, truck is too low. tried a set of those on also. went with the 22s because of the increase in drop compared to 24s and 26s are just not my thing.

I think it looks good man...You think you'll get another 1-2" of drop outta it before you can't go any further??

No. pretty much maxed out on drop without major work. suspension is pretty much still stock geometry, but any further and may have probs with tie rods binding and stuff like that. it just corners and handles so much better than even the 2/5 drop, thinking it is the size of the spindles that does that.

crap, i was planning on doing a 4/6 with stock wheels/tires till i get some different wheels. i guess it'll rub too much if i tried that then, eh? about to get a 24' enclosed car hauler for my other truck/dirtbikes or i'd get wheels at the same time...
