    Can't wait to see the after pics. I have the same truck as you so now I'll see what mine will look like with the lift.

    According to UPS, the Tuff Country 3" lift Kit (and the Hood QuickLift too) is on the way to be delivered today - finally!!! Man, I hate waiting...

    Should have it on this weekend if it all works out.

    Ok guys and gals... The lift came in last night and so did the hood struts.

    I am putting the hood struts on tonight and should have the lift on before the weekend is out.

    My only issue - and someone tell me if it's something I need to be concerned with... The package that the lift came in was damaged during shipment. All the parts were there (I did an inventory) BUT one of the strut spacers was mildly banged up... It appears that the AALs tapped it a few times during shipment.

    Is this something I should be concerned with - or should I just carefully file down the aluminum metal spurs that were created...???

    It isn't that bad - but not perfect...

    Don't be bro... Cost me around $280.00 plus a minor cost effective install fee (which I am not at liberty to say)...
