yeah I could do that. I talked to my buddy and he said if I can't find any he will build me a set but I would rather find some

 

If he knows how to weld VERY well and is good at fab that might be the best way to go! Let us know what happens at the dealership though!

Also keep an eye out for an event that happens between us, been trying to get some miles on my truck! I only get to drive my truck about twice a week now and it has been running reallyyy rough unless I put some seafoam in the tank and burn it through

 

I will for sure look for an event.

After looking into it, I might just leave the truck sitting the way it is for now and just put the traction bars in the back.

Brad (the one who would make my shackles) is the own who makes all the exo cages for our rock crawlers as well as anything else you could think of fabbed up for a crawler...I'm just not sure if I want to lower it yet or not

 

Ya I wouldnt worry about it too much man! It looks pretty sick right now!

How much did that new paint job run you if you don't mind me asking.

 

I think I am going to leave the truck the way it is for now.

Here are some more recent pictures of my truck:

 

truck looks great.....

on the shackles, they are out there, but i can't remember who makes them..... push come to shove you can make some or modify a stock set and make sure you don't make them too long as they may make contact with the bed.....

 

Thanks for the help! I will be sure to keep that in mind!
