    Looks great! How do you like the Eibach kit? Is the ride smooth? I'm in need of shocks and noticed this has a slight lift as well.

    I like them. The ride is firm but not jarring. I have the their kit in my 3rd gen too.

    Truck looks sick, such a big difference from the stock pic.
    Btw, 5 luggers can be males also, just sayin.

    It’s the Trail Gear low profile rock defence bumper. It directly bolts on, But I kept the metal trim piece that sits under the grill. It just needed a little bit of cutting and notching to get it to fit with the new tube bumper.

    At the risk on pouring salt on old wounds.....It's an Elite Offroad bumper. They were a tiny shop years ago and was run by let's just say a rather mercurial owner who decided to get 'creative' with customers deposits and business practices.

    I lucked out and had my bumpers and sliders delivered before things got really messy.

    I’m interested in lifting my truck with Bilsteins + Eibach 3” coils, and their 2” add a leaf.

    Just want to make sure that the lift isnt coming from the shocks in the front as I understand that it could be harmful in the long run.

    Also, my leaf springs on my truck are pretty flat. They aren’t in terrible shape, but I’m wondering if it will effect the add a leaf? Is there anything I can do to strengthen them short of getting new leaf packs?

    With 3” of lift in the front are you supposed to upgrade your UCA’s? This is what I’ve heard but I don’t know for sure. I don’t do much off roading, I pretty much want to do the lift for aesthetic reasons, increased right height and ride quality. Although I do drive dirt roads somewhat often.


    I’m trying to not spend thousands on this lift, I can’t justify it currently.
    Thanks for any / all help!
