I had mentioned that I had ordered wheels, tires, and Fabtech 6" lift. I was told it was going to be about 4800 bucks including installation but the deal got even better.
Today it all arrived (except wheels, they'll arrive tomorrow) I went down to the dealership and paid for them.
Wow, was I surprised.
I was charged 2120 for the Fabtech 6' lift including steering kit and shocks.
He charged me 1000 for (4) Mazzi Hulk 20x10 wheels including centercaps and lugnuts.
And last but not least, I paid 1560 for (4) Toyo Open Country 38x15.50-20's
The entire bill was 4680 and that includes installation. Whoa, Xmas came early.
Oh yea, my street scene flares arrived also. 2.5 inch flares.
My buddy is suppose to install all this Thursday. I pulled my truck onto the lift at my shop and was going to start installing it myself. Unfortunately, I know how work goes and I'll be interupted every 10 minutes.
I am so psyched. I can't wait.
Woooohooooo

The guy I'm getting the parts from is the accessory manager at a large Ford dealership named after a Nascar driver. (go figure, Nascar in Charlotte...lol)
Anyway, we do about 4-6K worth of paintwork for them each week. Since he is a distributor for about every vendor out there, he basically sold everything to me at his cost. (except the tires, he had them in stock (last set) and he sold them to me at his cost, not what is new cost is... prices went up)
And to make the deal even sweeter, he's installing it for free.
I can't wait to see what he wants painted next...lol.

I agree. The two benefits are installation included the fact that apparently Toyo's are not available right now. My understanding is Toyo is moving their plant and are not producing tires (or at leat the open countrys)
May not be the world's best deal but I'm very appreciative for the help. This post wasn't bragging but rather to show my excitement. I hope it didn't come out that way.
I don't think I've been this excited about modding any vehicle since my vette.

no problem. toyo and nitto (under same ownership) are opening up a plant in ga and have stopped products of the open country and the terra grappler. there is a huge national back order on both those. once they get that plant going it'll be readily available.
