Whoa! Awesome, awesome, awesome. Love that tire carrier idea.
Nice updates
Looks like a great day to be outside.
Nice tube bumper... did you make it?

You have regular shrock sliders modified for a body lift correct?
I have regular Shrock sliders that WERE modified for a body lift, but they are no longer modified. They are the standard non-body lift configuration on a body lifted truck.
The modification was essentially a rectangular plate that was a bit longer than the normal one. It had 3 holes in it: the bottom hole, bolted through the plate only and into the bottom frame hole. The middle hole bolted through the plate and the bottom slider mount and into the top frame hole. The top hole had a bolt and a nut that bolted the top of the plate to the top of the slider mount. The bolt was above the frame rail, which made room for the nut.
I drew up a quick diagram to explain how it was done. I liked the slider a bit lower so you could actually use it as a step.
Did you take my idea or I take yours? haha

That's pretty awesome. I wonder what the actual HP/TQ gains were.This was an update from March 2019 that I forgot to make here:
Well...My build never stops. Too much tire, too much steel, too much weight.
I know, let me add a set of cams to get some more power to push all of this!
I grabbed stock cams from a 1989 Nissan 300zx (Z31) at my local pull-a-part junk yard...and sent them in through The Z Store, which then sends them into Schneider Racing Cams, which then send them back to The Z Store, which then sends them back to me. Schneider Racing Cams re-grinds the cam to a more performance oriented profile.
I got the 131-h profile which is 262 duration for both intake and exhaust, and 0.42" of total lift. Definitely helps on the high way. I can pass cars now and merge onto the interstate!
