Its a 4wd truck. The headers are for the NBS trucks... alot of people were saying that the pacesetters would work so I picked up these. The passenger side went on great with plently of clearance but the drivers side needed a good amount of grinding to a bracket that was in the way. Additionally, the end of the y pipe needed to be turned the opposite direction (towards the center of the truck). The Y pipe was longer than stock so I had to trim ~2.5" off the I pipe.

With the above mods and 20X8.5 Driv Moonshines w/ 33X12.5X20 Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ's, I get about 16 hwy and about 13 in town. It may be better now since I havent driven it much with the headers on.

Please do. I am looking at all the kits and trying to figure out what size tires i can run. i was gonna do a 6" lift and black the whole truck out but i like the way it looks too much. and i am getting simpler now days. Did you look at any other leveling kits and any pros and cons. is there any rubbing with your current tire?

thanks so much. i gotta get this thing leveled and tires on it.

Here are some pics.







The truck still looks nose down but they measure out the exact same in the center of the wheel weels. I didnt look at any other leveling kits... fabtech always has good products so I went with them. The tires rub sometimes at full left or full right but its not much at all and definately not worth worrying about.


Edit: Heres a sound clip
