Perfect eh?

No hydro assist or full hydro steering? With a truck THAT big, with tires THAT big, a hydro set up is a MUST. I'd hate to see the steering angle for that truck

Perfect?? Are you looking at the same pics you posted or are you looking at a different truck, that thing is far from perfect.

I dont know what all he did , he put almost 8k into building it , for a truck that big rolling down the highway at 70 wasnt a bad ride, and it was almost impossible to get stuck .

The lift block and the soft 64" chevy springs are the problem. I'm guessing a 4" block? Plus a few inches of the low pinion 10 bolt axle...you have 7-8" of leverage. Double the stock leverage.

Get a 4x4 shop to put an axle wrap bar on it and be done with it.
