Look on CL. But just a FYI. Cab-n-chassis frames have 34" wide frame, pickups have 36" wide frames so you will be heavily modifying anything you find

Off topic but what are the tires on your truck and how well do they fit in there?
Craigslist. A lottle modification with a welder shouldn't be too bad depending on the setup of the dump bed. Hardest part will probly be the PTO setup to run the hydraulics

35's. Fit great, after a tiny shaving of the front bumper. I have a custom RSK that added inches or so and then 5 inch blocks in the rear.

Huh, they look bigger than 35s. They just seem to fill the wheel wells more than mine do.

I guess the RSK gave you just enough lift to make it look bigger. Looks good!
