    Nice job so far, what step bars did you get? Did you have to do any trimming to make those tires fit up underneath the truck? I went with 245/70-17's and had to take out the black boxes.

    Two things are happening with this 'lift' .. the spacer/AAL lift with replacement shocks for additional ride height, and this rim-tire combination that he's chosen. The difference between this, and any other spacer/AAL'd 2nd gen 5-lug, is that he's on the extreme side of what can be accomplished with larger wheel sets, and the limitations of the spacer/AAL lift upgrade.
