Before I input any of my cents, keep in mind that whatever route you go, you have to plan for how you're going to use the truck, and how handy you...
Will that backspacing be an issue rubbing on the inside of the tire well? I rubbed with about 3.5" backspace (on an '82 and stock rims, mind you)...
What kind of budget are you hoping for, and what years are you looking into?
I love 'em. Close enough to perfect spring rate, and with the stock shocks or the upgraded KYB shocks I've got now, it's great as a daily setup...
Blocks can introduce additional axle wrap, which is bad if you like to launch the truck (even on a barely upgraded, never rebuilt block, it gets...

what year range do you consider 2nd gen? the 4wd guys and the 2wd guys tend to not agree which is the 'real' 2nd gen.
Thanks! The fenders and valance are off the 4wd versions (RN40?) that I got off Rockauto, and the lip wing/spoiler is from a guy in Thailand, ebay...
