wow that thing must ride like garbage,what is that a 4in block in the back? Also the leafs look like their already started to invert from the blocks. Could be a really nice rig to if you redo the rear setup.

It has some plusses, but really. Welded D35? 4"lift blocks? It is going to need some work before it is trail worthy, as well as lowering it.

Pass.

Welded D35 on 35" muds. Welded blocks, so will need to be ground off. Way too much height. What is the diamond plate box under the hood? Extra reservoir for the headlight actuater...done right

i love how it says 11 1/2 inches of lift (done right) yet no person that is smart enough uses block and a really smart person doesnt have the rear end sagging about 3 inches lower than the front of the truck so the front is at about 11 1/2 inches the back looks to be about 8 1/2 inches

The diamond plate thing is a replacement for the stock pressure bottle. The stupid things crack real easy. If I had the spare dough I would get one for myself.
