    Saw a 6 inch lifted 2019 truck on dealer lot.

    the "Performance" suspension kit looked like a front spacer and the a huge block in the rear. Notice the stock Yellow-blue bilstiens.


    50K truck with options Original stick 40K. Wow.

    Some armor on the front differential. Dealer installed Odometer?

    Subframe lift and a huge block in rear. Same here at my dealer. Identical truck to that and 53k. Wow. And you can lift the TSS trucks just fine I haven't had a single issue with mine.

    I believe the dealer installed odometer is the thing that changes your speedometer to read correctly after putting bigger tires on

    $9k to cruise for mall pussy.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    Ah yes.. the ever wonderfull drop bracket lift done by DSI. The dealer i work for sells these. They cut the frame crossmember in the front for the drive shaft.. typically they sit higher in the front and theyre good for leaving stuff loose. I would never recommend someone buys one of these things.


    Ruined truck from the dealer floor
