Count me in, I'd like to help and learn...you know, meet those with space/tools/knowledge for when I'm upgrading :)

This is what a MOD DAY is all about.  ;D

I finally have a weekend off so I wouldn't mind coming down to help out. I'm not the best turning wrenches but I've helped do a few lift installs. If nothing else it's an excuse to pick peoples brains about a Titan Suspension swap.

You're more than welcome.  Shall I add you to the "for fun" list?

Jordan is not kidding, he is like the Mr. Miagi of mechanics.  Wrench on, wrench off.

What size?  You may end up with rubbing prior to the lift.

Think those will rub?  *opens can of worms and is told to search you freakin' newb*  Or is that only on TNX? 

I think I'm going to get them from Discount Tire

They've also got duratracs for around the same price

Do you have stock wheels? If yes then they will fit as long ad you do what they call the melt mod,  take a hair dryer or heat gun if you have one and turn the wheels.  There's a little bump in the plastic that is close to the tires for no reason, just heat the plastic and push it back and hold til it cools, don't completely melt the plastic you just want to make it soft.  This can be done prior to getting tires and more if needed after.  Or just do it all after tires it won't be too bad on the drive home from the tire shop.

I do have stock wheels. 
Will they rub the whole time or just when turning the wheel? (pre melt mod)

I have to track down something that blows hot air.  *besides myself!
