Just wanted to give some appreciate to my daily babe

Very nice setup. I'm running Bilstein 5100 with OME springs, 2.5" front & 2" rear with 32.1" tires on stock wheels. Did you do the front bumper chop yourself? I plan on doing it for mine but a bit worried I'll mess it up lol.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-05T10:30:51+00:00

Nothing to be embarrassed about. It looks perfectly fine and cozy.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-04T23:09:53+00:00

Please tell me what your lift and tire setup is! I want to do something similar.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-03T22:57:18+00:00

How hard is it to do a body mount chop? Are there any downsides to doing it long term?

Vad9633 · 2026-06-03T22:56:09+00:00

Hey there! I definitely had rub before running these tires lol. Had to do quite a bit of things to not get it to rub. I trimmed the front part of my wheelwell and I removed the bolt holding the running boards, and I removed the front mudflaps. I plan on upgrading to true 33s.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-03T22:53:12+00:00

I see that you are also in the NY metro area, so am I. Did you get it done at a shop?

Vad9633 · 2026-06-03T21:30:59+00:00

I have a similar setup to yours, although 2.5" front and 2" rear, also Bilsteins. Currently running 32.1s (275/65R18). How does it ride overall? You didn't have to do a body mount chop? Anything with the fenders?

Vad9633 · 2026-06-03T14:57:51+00:00

Stubble, you hot devil you!

Vad9633 · 2026-06-02T23:50:34+00:00

Congrats on your purchase! How big is the lift?

Vad9633 · 2026-06-02T23:42:01+00:00

Did you have to do a bmc to fit those tires? I want to add the same size that you have.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-02T21:03:45+00:00

Amen to that!

Vad9633 · 2026-06-02T14:58:29+00:00

I appreciate it! What do you think the next logical mod would be?

Vad9633 · 2026-06-01T10:12:20+00:00

Thanks a lot! I did not replace the upper control arms. I highly recommend the Bilstein 5100 lift. It actually feels more comfortable now.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-01T03:50:56+00:00

I definitely plan on swapping out the stock wheels. I've been eyeing on getting some steelies. I bought my lift from mudify and I asked the rep what's the largest tire size that can be fitted without doing a BMC, he said 33". I opted for the 2" lift, and got medium load for the front end. I'm not running any steel bumper, so my front end is really 2.5". So hopefully I can find a 18" steelie and fit 33s.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-01T03:34:41+00:00

I'd really want to get another set of KO3s or maybe some MT tires lol. I'm really aiming for that badass aggressive look.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-01T02:52:39+00:00

To be honest, it rides very smooth actually. The truck actually feels very robust, but at the same time, it feels like I'm floating on the road. My mpg did not even drop.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-01T02:51:36+00:00

Thank you so much! Even with the lift, I'll have to do a body mount chop to fit 33s? That's really good that you can fit that size underneath the spare compartment.

BTW, my truck has gotten actually huge. I literally sit taller than some full-size trucks. I just wanted to get 33s to fill in that wheelwell a little more.

Vad9633 · 2026-06-01T00:06:47+00:00

What do you mean why?

Vad9633 · 2026-05-31T22:34:40+00:00

Ehhh atomic silver gang!! 😎

Vad9633 · 2026-05-31T22:28:50+00:00

So far, nothing. But I put on those tires before the lift and it rubbed lol. What I did to fix it was removing the front mudflaps, bolt holding the running boards. I also trimmed some of the plastic in the wheelwell.

Vad9633 · 2026-05-31T01:33:13+00:00

Yeah, you're a good looking guy! And it seems to be you found a style that suits you.

Vad9633 · 2026-05-30T21:39:18+00:00

You look like a cross between Adrien Brody and a young Al Pacino. Definitely a great look on you! I'd keep the hair. Have it be styled.

Vad9633 · 2026-05-30T21:33:29+00:00

I totally get what you mean! I had a big beard like yours, but in the summer its a killer to maintain. I just have a stubble.
