    Whaddya got a DBL can or extra? I had an 01 DBL cab once upon a time...

    -lifting it 3" fucks the lower control arms pretty quick.
    -you can clear 33" tires with a 3" lift(still rubs a little)
    -just buy a 4-6" lift and don't pussyfoot around. It look badass. :spending:



    Keep an eye on the frame and have fun bud!

    And remember nothing you do will make your fuel economy any better except driving it totally stock, and there's no fun in that. :thumbsup::rofl:

    Don’t listen to this kid. Im running 255/85/16’s (tall skinny 33”) on a 2 lift. Very minor rubbing that’s easily mended.

    6” lifts don’t really give you anything but looks and low clearances. But I guess if that’s what your into.

    Or I guess you might not even want a lift, which is fine too.

    He's right I was running 285/75/r17's. Even with those though, they only rubbed a little.20160322_164202.jpg

    Also, don't call me "kid",

    I found a guy in my area that made custom bumpers. Only set me back 850 cad. The lights were Hellas that were ringed by LEDs they looked great.
