    Rebuilt my CV's today. Both sides tore boots from the xmas tree run, so I pulled everything off and replaced with new boots all around. I originally reused the stock ones for the extended axles and if I were to do it over i'd buy brand new ones all around. Live & learn...

    Also took the Pack Rack off and put the shell back on for the winter. Headed up to Tahoe next weekend for the week of Christmas so i'll need to haul everything in the bed and keep it nice and dry :thumbsup:

    Yes it does. At the moment I am sitting at about 3.5" and with the trimmed fenders it looks like its higher (in my opinion)

    sick looking truck man. Love the overall look you have going on there. That new LT kit was an incredible project to engineer and I'm glad to see you like the looks and function.
