NO LONGER STOCK
Brendle began telling himself that as the owner of one of the largest accessories shops in Idaho, the truck couldn't stay completely stock. A lift and some tires and wheels would really set the truck off. Fabtech Motorsports was called and its new 9-inch coil over conversion kit was ordered up. The Fabtech suspension lift replaces the factory front suspension with a complete long travel system that uses Dirt Logic 4.0 coil over remote reservoir shocks, increasing front wheel travel to a full 12 inches. The kit also replaces the weak factory tie-rods and factory torsion bar system. The rear is just your basic shackle and spring swap.
With a little more room under the wheel wells it was time for some larger tires. Kumho Venture MTs in 37x13.5r22 were chosen for their good road manners and awesome off-road capability. They were wrapped around Rolling Big Power's 22x11 91R wheels with black finish and chrome center caps, giving the already black truck a very sinister look.
