Thanks, I am scanning the truck forums now to see if others have extended it, and if so by how much. I found one guy that made a nice extension on his truck, but it lasted all of 2 days before his driveway ripped it off. Which has me thinking a bit.

I do take the truck off road, but generally driving across my pasture and around my property in MO. But nothing extreme. There is also the snow factor that I am thinking about also. I will start measuring and thinking about how I can do this. Possibly make the extension removable for bad weather or if I find myself in a spot where I need the clearance. I will pick up some landscape edging and start toying with some ideas. I will start by measuring how much clearance I have now going into or exiting out of my driveway... :-)
