    Hi everyone started this thread to document my build since I just got it back from SDHQ( who did an awesome job btw).

    Truck
    2008 DCLB sport
    Auto trans
    DSCF0104_zpsde32210c_32387d4b293ca577452c6615e72ad7b5e7a12898.jpg

    Mods done:
    lighted 4x4 switch
    fixed overhead console temp and compass

    Tires:
    Sport stock 17 inch rims With 265/70/17 BFG all terrains


    Lift
    front:
    king 2.5 resses with adjustment knobs and 700 lbs springs with Camburg uppers

    rear:
    2.5 resses with adjustment knobs, 2.0 king air bumps with deaver 3"experimental j66 expedition springs

    both front and rear have 1.25 inch ballistic spacers.

    at the moment no pictures but will upload some next week.

    As far as the ride goes. Driving home from SDHQ the front end was amazing compared to stock. The rear was a little stiff due to new springs and what not. After tossing in a couple hundred pounds of sand in the back, the back end is also amazing. Wife even likes it which says a lot. now need to get front plate bumper, rear plate bumper and armor so suggest away. thanks for looking and again will get pic up asap. Will also update on rear springs when I get a chance to wheel it a bit as I know that Vince wants to know as well. thanks for looking


    Oh and a teaser pic of my rear spring is in the mid travel thread

    here are some before pictures as well( finally found my cable to camera!)

    Looks great! How many inches of lift did that net you? and when you get around to it can we get a pic just from the side?

    im not exactly sure how much looks like about 4 in the rear and 2 1/2 in the front. SDHQ was going to wait for the rear to break in before adjusting the front to match.

    We can take preorders. They are starting assembly of them and it's about a 3 week lead time right now. Deaver is a bit busy for the 1000.

    What do you guys think about running this leave pack with the shackle flip from armor tech offroad? The shackle flip will give me another 3/4in lift correct? Would you guys run shocks in the stock location, or BAMF relocation buckets?
