Hello all, I've been wanting to do this since I've gotten the truck a couple months back, FINALLY! i'm so happy with the outcome... I raised her 2 1/4 inch with Billstein 5100 adjustable shocks set at the top notch. also new shocks in the rear, as well as a 1" aal in the rear to even her out.. Stock springs still, sitting on 265/75/16 bfg a/t's. It rides much better than stock height, its definitely stiffer but it takes bumps and holes like a champ when I'm driving through the city (Baltimore) streets are hella fucked. anyway heres how she looks now.

 

Looks great man!

 

What aal did you use? I'm looking for an inch lift for the rear of my truck as well. Thanks.

 

Looks awesome!! If you want a smoother ride, swap your stock coils for OME 884s (put 5100 on lowest setting) and you'll keep the same amount of lift. New coils are ~$175.

 

I just found the aal on ebay, any one will do lots of factorys just stamp them out in dyes. Also I like the firmer ride, I have lift coils I just sold. Rides like a new truck!

 

I just got my new 2017 Sport and want to lift/level also. I'm considering a spindle kit but was also advised to go this route.

 

looks good, im guessing your up curtis bay??
