Clean looking rig. Nice that it has the full roof rails, allows for more roof rack options or tent.

Me, l like 16 inch wheels/tires for off-roading...more rubber, less rim.

What brand/type of wheel spacer did you go with?

Also, are you planning on a lift (not that one is absolutely necessary). These rigs are very capable off-road regardless...but a little extra ground clearance is somewhat helpful.

Looking forward to following along.

Brian.

I agree on the wheels! I’m gonna get some 16’ wheels, the spacers are 2’ spacers that I got custom made by a shop here in Denver, don’t really wanna lift the truck, Ilike the OEM ride height, but if I encounter issues once I hit the trails, I’m gonna do a 2’ lift, appreciate the feedback!

Default Slight update!

No pics this time, but fixed my exhaust leak, and fixed the CB (it was reading at a 4.2 SWR) also cleaned up the under carriage and sprayed it with some coating, next is ordering a steel rear bumper 😁

Where did you get the 2" spacers from in Denver? Ive got the 2" HD lift from TerraFirma, but wouldnt mind a little higher ride.
