    nah, just kidding.

    Lift and grillcraft are done. Decided to stick with the stockers - like the look and the cash in my pocket. Will have more pics later.

    Total lift is about 4.5 - which doesn't seem like much til you see it in person ... HOT DAMN... this thing looks and drives like a whole new truck. Love it.

    As far as stock rims - glad to hear someone that agrees. They compliment the BFGs perfectly. The look is perfect me thinks. :cool:

    Oh, and did I tell you guys I'm moving to Florida? :D j/k

    So I've been a member of this forum for 2 years and that's it? No one has shit to say? My lift kicks ass, there, I said it for you. Mods, close this thread and delete it.

    That smiley is great. I'll be using it frequently.

    yeah - I think it's around 4.5 but I didn't measure. The stance of the truck has been improved much more than I expected. It looks and drives like a brand new rig. very happy with it.
