Well It just keeps growing and growing. Dec 20th I will have had my 89 Limited for 1 year. I am on my 6th set of tires and wheels 33X15.50 super swampers TSL/SX. And today just added a rear tire carrer. I built my bumpers and Tie rod and all customizing has been built by me. Also I am working on making some long arms.So far I have not become board and want to sell her. After adding the shackles and biskits all SKYJACKER with shocks and made my rear springs from a 2000 ford explorer and the ride was great until the swampers.

Finnished the 89 limited ended up with 6.5 inches of lift running 35s than sold it. the second picture is of whats next Yes the speedo says 312212 thousand miles. I have bought Harleys in baskets before but this if I can get it well lets just say Its in the back of a truck.
