I'm in the same boat you are. Doesnt seem to be a lot of availability for the full size crowd.

"18's right now.

I've debated a cam job on it. I'm torn, but paint is a ways off at this point. Do love your truck though. Had one just like it in the 90's Loved that truck.

Whether its "17 or "18 wheels, I dont know if a "16 will clear the brakes. I'll be going with a steel wheel. Are skid plates something that can be bought or do most people roll their own with those? I did notice the low hanging shock tower on the factory set up. Its a point of concern. ETA...

In all honesty, there really is no such thing as a "professional" prospector, only professional "miners". A prospector is someone looking for something. A miner has already found it and digging for profit. Anyone "mining" is actually making money digging for what ever mineral they are looking...
