    I've had the lift for 6 months and finally got it installed. Up front is 5100's at lowest setting with eibach 3" springs. Also put in a 1" diff drop. In the back are Skyjacker 2.5" leaf packs with new U-bolts and 2.5 degree shims. Rear shocks are billy 5125's. Also has rear extended brake line and brake proportion valve bracket. Attached are a before and after pic.

    The ride is great but my stock springs and shocks were shot. The springs were beyond flat. The skyjacker springs gave me more lift then I thought they would about 3 1/2". I'm sure they will settle a little.
