Crusty snow can be "not so much fun" at times. Especially, once the depth gets about/above the center of your tire. Makes for tough sledding.

Great pictures, though.

Sorry if I missed it in the thread, but do you have caster corrected radius arms on this?

Not yet, have plans to pick them up, but to be honest I haven't had any issues with my angles so far, just had to change out the rotoflex in the back for a U Joint. I am putting in another 2" in the front so we will see how it likes that haha

So you're currently at what, 3" all round? And those are 33s? And you have stock drive shafts still?

Sorry for all the questions, I'm currently building my D1 and yours represents EXACTLY what I want mine to look like. It's perfect!

No problem! I think its more at 4.5 inches in the rear, and 2 in the front. Have HD OME coils and spacers in the back, and just 2 inch coils in the front. I have some spacers for the front i plan on putting in next weekend. Still have stock shafts, and yes 33's (285/75/16). I have heard that the angles and axles handle lifts very differently from truck to truck, guess I've been lucky but it handles it all very well, albeit for quite a bit of bump steer ahah
