beautiful match.... love the boat and the truck!
is that a leveling kid and 34" tires on the truck? Do they rub? I am thinking about doing the same or 35"....

Those have to be 35's. I know you have the leveling kit because the VLX will not sag the rear of a Dodge. I have the same color Dodge, 05, 6 speed only Sport.

Kev. I took it with my camara phone I know it sucks but its all i had at the time. LOL I really need to get a good digital one of these days. Eric, I know man I can't wait for Powell! Were going to have so much fun.
Mat your right, the VLX does not sag the rear at all. The lift I have has a Cali tilt which has the front end higher then the back. I just think it looks better that way vs being completely level and the tires are 35 and they don't rub at all.

I never thought there was much about me that made it obvious that I'm from Texas, but I can't imagine putting that lean on a suspension on purpose ;) Cali leans probably make me laugh as much as Texas rakes crack you cali boys up...although I can't stand the rake either :P

All told, though...that is one fantastic lookin' setup. Grey/black shades are a hella good way to roll IMO.

Sick setup J! Don't listen to those texans

, the truck sits perfect, I wouldn't change a thing! Hopefully see you Sunday, I'm still working on it... Congrats on the setup man, it really does look awesome.

Looks good J-Bear... I can't wait to see it in person... Hell, at this point, it'd be nice to see the SD Crew in person, again!

What do you think this truck would've done to the squirrel?

Take it easy.
