    Yes, but not sure if it would work with mine, because it’s a roll up, and it doesn’t sit on the bed rails

    I’m about to get new wheels and tires, and will have a matching 5th. So I have to find a way to mount it.

    I have the viair 444C, the tank is from a company out of Mesa, Az. It's only 1.5 gal. I had to pull the grill out to get it in there. Very tight to get past the bumper and trans cooler. I had to make my own mounting brackets but overall not to bad.

    Agreed! It does look pretty cool. I might have to see how my hood goes, and if its not too bad I will wrap my roof!

    Got the new rims and tires installed. All in all I only have $200 in total after I sold my old rims and tires. These are wildpeaks at3 265/75r16. The main reason I got rid of the old tires/rims (eagle alloy 197) was because of a terrible steering wheel shake and the truck rode like a tank with 18 inch rims. I'm very happy with the ride now and no shake!

    Went to the Dealership this morning to see if they would replace my leaf's under recall? I just bought the truck and thought I would give it a try well it turned out positive and they will do the leaf replacement under recall. New leafs at 60k miles can't complain.

    I got that done a couple months ago to mine. Not sure why but my rear end sags with the new leaf springs compared to my old ones. Only maybe 1/2 inch or so but I can see the difference.

    From what I have read it should have raised the rear about 1/2 to 1"? Strange it went the other way.

    It went from a 3 leaf pack (stock on my truck at least) to a 4 leaf pack. I figured it would have raised it, but it did not. I was considering getting back in contact with the dealership. Maybe I got the wrong leafs or something.

    Looks like the N-Fab that is on eBay. I can't find it on their site though.

    My buddy had the TSB leaves installed (went from 3 to 4) and gained zero lift as well.

    He's a double cab long bed, I'm sure the cab and bed configuration plays a role in whether or not any lift is achieved

    I lost height with the new pack though. My rear end sags about 1/2 to an inch compared to the old leafs. That's the only reason why I would get back in touch with the dealership. It wouldn't matter to me if I lost some height but on level ground my front end looks way high.
