    I did, i have all the exact measurements at home. I only measured stock to after lift and tires. I believe the front was about 3.5" on both side and rear was around 2.5" on both

    Gotcha, and you should have gained 1.1" just from the tires alone, right?. 265x70R16 = 30.561" and 285x75R16 = 32.83", so 2.2"/2. Looks like about 1.4" from the AAL then?

    Edit: was an idiot and said 2.2" before. Doh.

    Yea that sounds pretty weak, I'll double check when I get home. I don't remember if that 2.5" was from center hub to fender or not

    I am probably in the minority, but when I get a 3rd Gen I am looking for a mild lift only, but like it level, so less than 1.5" up in the back doesn't bother me too terribly much.

    I agree with you. Unfortunately I drive a lot more in the city than playing in the mountains so I still wanted to have a good ride for daily driving. If I need/want to crank it up a bit I can always do that later

    Damn that looks good. Those stock wheels sure are good looking with beefier tires. Have you checked for rubbing issues yet?

    Thanks. I think they look real good too and it saved me some $$$ for skids or a tonneau cover. Driving around town there has not been any rubbing at all. I'm headed to telluride/ouray in a couple weeks and will be able to test it out a little more then.

    I did it myself, figured it would be a good learning experience for me. You tube and this place are life savers. I got my tires at discount tire and RSG Offroad did the alignment for me after all that. If i was to recommend anyone to install professionally it would be RSG or Toytec. Everyone I dealt with at all those places was awesome.

    2" bigger tire only gives you 1" of lift.

    Wow, #1 Mathlete Award for me. Silly mistake. Wish I could claim I was drunk or something. Oops.

    I just realized Toytec is in Thornton too. I wonder if they would give a deal like free install since I'll be dropping so much coin over there.

    After driving from Texas to Missouri and back, I am happy with how it rides after removing to overloads! I hauled quite a bit of junk, and did not have a noticeable sag. Do yourself a favor and take out the overloads when you install the progressive pack! If you leave them in you will not like the ride, even on the hwy.
