We had a threat of severe weather here over the weekend that included tornados and large hail. Seeing how I have no insurance on this truck I made it a priority to get this truck home in the new garage on Saturday. This way it is protected, and also so I can work on it at home and be spending more time at home rather than at the shop. (Wife's idea) I also did get my old steelies put on. It's a good thing I decided to stay with the 33's. It wouldn't have went in the garage with 35s. I had to let the air out of the rear bags to get it in there as it is.Ryan

Here it is in the garage. I'm not sure how many of you remember how far the rear tires stuck out on this thing when I had the 18s on it, but these look much better due to the extra 1" off set these particular rear wheels have. The D80 is much wider than the D60 that was in this truck so it was hard to find a wheel to bring the tires back in. I just got lucky on these 2 wheels.Ryan
