ya, i got 2" coil spacers in front and rear, so the front end is about 1" higher than the rear at the top of the fender, but at the rocker its pretty much even at all 4 corners... i need to do something about it..like some 4dr coils in the rear, or something..and nope, i didnt tape off the tires or anything, just yanked them off, and sanded the hell outta them and wiped down with prep solv solvent, and went at it with the wal-mart brand flat black like i did to the rest of the truck....the thing was purple when i bought it, and its my beater, so flat black was sweet.....it actually turned out lookin pretty good, i think, except for the rear needing more lift

the cv's arent really on that much of an angle, and my hubs were froze in 4wd, so ive prolly put 4,000mi on the front drive train, the only problems that ive had with them so far is that my outer cv boot ripped on the drivers side, and i had to replace that....but i dont believe that ripping was due to the angle, i believe it was just deteriorated

that on the headlights is just flat black spray paint.....i cleaned them up real good, there wasnt any way to really sand them....taped them off on my angle, and sprayed away, it seems to be holding up real well, i copied the idea off of SiKiD on here
