But, once the headers are developed, you'd probably have more clearance than a truck without a body lift.

*EDIT* I wonder how the steering shaft angle would be affected...
The steering shaft angle hits my headers now. I have a nice round rust spot in my headers...

Maybe take pops truck up there and that can be his Christmas present.

I'll talk with pops this weekend and see what he says. He said that he would like to get a set of SS headers so with them being free he may go for it, just have to price out a rental for a week. BUT I will keep everyone posted.

Also does anyone have a exact address so I can map it out.

I know your headers look like NEW John, you would give me your headers if I get my pops to take his truck up there?

I have all of the stock bolts, but no stock size tires or else I would be there in a heart beat.... I'm going taller in the next few months also, about 6-9" taller.

I live about three hours away, mostly stock 4x4 here. I'd drop my truck off for a week no problem.

Where do I sign?
