Foam:

Saw an identical truck to yours come into Chick's Oyster Bar today on 40x14's. OMG. This dude's truck gave me a woody. Total mall cruiser, and I didn't give a fuck.

 

the guy used a lot of it. we tried about 15 times. 10 with starting fluid and 5 with brake cleaner

 

yea man, i finally got to drive my truck around today to go get a christmas tree.... and being on stock suspension, no rubbing, full turn radius, not having to heave the tree up into the bed and just sliding it in instead..... yea man, i'll prolly never do bigger than 35s on a daily driver ever again.

now, when im in a position to have another toy.... that's another story... but for now.... i'm super happy to have a stock height truck

 

It's 2.30am, I have to be at work by 8am and I'm rebuilding the valve body for my truck.

The things I do..

 

few years back mounting 44x18.50 tsl's on 16.5x15 wheels . . .the 16.5's do take a few times because they have no safety beads and if you don't get air in em quick enough then they fall right back off . . .

yeah thats the truth...two people doing it is easier...have one on standby with an air hose and the other starting the flame. i always used a striker for torches though, seemed safer than the open flame
