    nope. It should be easier with the wheel off the truck though. But just think about what im saying ....... You want to know where your stock bump height is so what would you do to find that? You would flex your suspension until you bottomed out on your bump and then measure the overall length from shock mount to shock mount right? Im telling you to still get that measurement but without having to flex the suspension. So at ride height, or wherever you wish to start from, measure the overall length from mounting point to mounting point then subtract the length between your bumpstop and its strike pad (bottoming out point)

    Backwards :D

    It's decent. For some stupid reason, our alignment machine at the shop was reading my caster backwards (I'll explain later). I set my camber at 0.5 and toe to 0. I have no idea where my caster is, i don't rub and i have no sway bar.

    Cool cool. I'm thinking of going with 885's up front and AAL in the rear so I'm guessing I'll get between 2.1" and 2.3" of lift. Hoping to get atleast decent specs...

    Think I can fit some 285's under there? :D

    Not too worried about trimming. I figure a cab mount chop and some fender liner trimming should take care of it.

    That's what I did. I'm about to swap out my stock coils for eibach HD 2.5" coils. I think I'll have to same amount of lift or more. I know i will until the springs settle

    It's funny to me how facts never change. Except when some scientist decides that the farthest planet from the sun in the solar system isn't really a planet at all but instead just a big floating rock like all the other big floating rocks out there and all of a sudden every Science book in the history of modern telescoping research includes fictional criteria that has been burned into the brains of millions of hopelessly ignorant humans who only wished to diligently and intelligently study every facet of the presently known smallest solar system in the galaxy .......... Then and ONLY then, my friends, do facts change ......

    I bought them used and they didn't come with them. I also am not a fan of the center caps that come with them anyway.
