How's that Whiplash Kit drive?

And did they redesign the Trackarm mount, or is it still that little whimpy bolt on heim bracket?

Well this isnt truly the whiplash kit...it started out that way, then Scott at Extreme Gear off road did the D70/D60 swap for me and we changed a bunch of stuff over to stock 3/4ton dodge. So basically i have a 1/2ton truck with 3/4, 1ton stuff under it. They had done some funky drop pitman we changed that to a Skyjacker drop pitman arm and the Skyjacker trac bar mount and trac bar from the 3/4ton. This is a pretty solid set up, with doing all of this i was able to change my steering over to the 3/4 ton stuff too! MUCH better!

Rudezuk....
I just found my new wall paper!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> That thing is BADASS!! <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0"> I am hoping to buy my dad's 96 from him when he goes for a new dodge! It's a 3/4 ext. cab with cummins, I think I can clear 38's with a 6", do you? If not, 36's would be fine! Truly awesome job on your dodge, and if you don't mind me asking, how have you invested, ballpark, in it? <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

how the hell do you get in and out of it?

cool that you haven't put those hideous nerfs on (or worse yet-those "hoop" steps... <IMG SRC="smilies/puke.gif" border="0"> )that hang down and look <IMG SRC="smilies/rainbow.gif" border="0"> homer simpson ~uhuhhhhuuhhh~ shudder.that's usually the killer of cool looking big trucks in my opinion.
do you have vicious attack dogs 'n things to keep <IMG SRC="smilies/flipoff.gif" border="0"> theives from nicking it? i couldn't own something like that if i couldn't put it in a bank vault at night! i'd never get any sleep sitting up with baseball bats looking out my window to see if anyone was eyeballin' my ride...

Hardcore....Not sure on the 38's...if you did a body lift too, you would make it, but 36's for sure...and if you do that why not go witht the 36x14's? Makes it look a little bigger...i think for a total invested in it not including the truck is somewhere around 10k.
Uzi...im 6' so i just hop in and jump out...the fun part is the date thing!!!...if you cant lift her in, then she doesnt need to go!

Allan,

6" of lift on your truck will be more than enough to clear 38s w/o a body lift or fender trimming. I know this because 2 years ago I installed a Dick Cepek 6" lift on my ex-girlfriend's '98 3/4 ton shortbed (ahem) Cummins-powered Ram. We put 38x15.50R16.5 Dick Cepek Radial F-Cs on it on 16.5x12 Weld Super Single rims. Just my $.02

I saw him pull one tire on about a 4 foot rock this weekend and all 3 others were still on the ground. It totally didn't suck!!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
