    Oh so it is a hair nose high, I thought it was just the pictures. Possible your leaf packs(not the AAL) are worn out? If you want it leveled, you could bring down the coilovers a few turns which would also improve the ride as a bonus

    leaf are under 10k miles. Do your tires vs mine make yours measure at 1” higher than mine?

    I did get a CMC. They’re 17x9 wheels with a -12 offset. 315/70r17ACC3CAB6-36DE-4CE6-BDB7-A323A0030615.jpg
    Edit- the coils are 700#

    Wow so mine are closer to 100% in max height according to icon tech specs. I have 17x8 at 0 offset and looking at add 285/70/17. All the plastics are shaved off to fit a previous 285/70/16 Wheels and tire. How do you like the suspension at your current height? What does your measure from middle center cap to top fender? Also who did your cmc and what did it cost you?

    24” from the center of the cap to the bottom of the fender.
    Suspension is great I’m very happy with the ride quality. I have icons all around & kept the overload in the rear with all the weight of the tent, rack, full size spare in the bed & steel bumper. It sits pretty close to level.
    @duggys here in Houston did my CMC and charged me $125 / I provided the plates

    Man I wish California prices were the same as Houston prices. I’m getting quotes anywhere from $250-$350 smh. I took mine out the other day and was driving in the 50mph range on Washed out dirt roads and it felt awesome. Mine is pretty much a hair off leveled now without the overload. Did you do a icon AAL? Also is your higher from because of the tires from center cap to bottom of fender, we’re 2in apart and I’m running 265/70/17 right now

    Oh ok. About so, yes. I remember seeing you from another thread, I believe. Aren’t you the 2nd owner, and the previous owner had those wheels/tires mounted? I was gonna give you another comparison of my current tires somewhat next to the stock size.

    Yes I’m the second owner of this truck and the first owner had a different wheel set up, he had the stock Baja TRD rims and had falken 285/70/16 and I traded them out for the methods I have now 265/70/17

    Ok that’s right, now I remember.

    Although I love the size and looks of my 295’s, the E-load stiffness has been getting to me. Sounded like a good idea at the time lol

    I hear a lot of people say that LOL. So I called 88 rotors and they’re saying I don’t need a CMC even If I do off-roading with the 285’s with my current suspension. I guess it will be trial and error on my end LOL

    Lol I bet, for me mainly because I don’t have any armor or extra weight to cushion it. I can’t say I trust 88 Rotors’ suggestion. I’ve seen a few of their videos and if by “off road” they mean “mall-terrain” then sure lol. I’m just talking shit at this point because I could be wrong, I’ve been wrong many times before lol

    So I found it and it was shy of that lol. It was 2 years ago, they even flattened the pinch weld a even more, applied more seam sealer and undercoating to it. To me that was well worth their attention to details though. I can’t say that about every shop
