    The truck being nose if he does not get the headlights adjusted correctly he’ll be blinding on coming traffic so that is a safety and driving issue.

    A boot being loose isn’t a safety issue at all

    My comment was about safety, but not surprised you don’t give a shit
    That’s why the Carolina squat has been made illegal in several states

    The real question is how is the ride? Did you guys gain back any down travel?

    well, downtravel is for off road performance and ride comfort which it appears is something that truck was not modified to do regardless

    One small issue, among others
    It is squatting and pointing headlights to the moon

    is 2WD
    and alignment unknown
    and as someone pointed out a fallen off rack boot

    usually what people do is lift the rear and front
    And front matches the rear
    For more clearance and weight carrying capacity in the rear
    which has the side effect of looking good

    usually lift means 4x4, off-roading, not profile tires, and no front sway. Not 22” wheels
    The whole point

    rubbing is addressed with things like fender trimming, CMC or CMR, etc

    here’s an example

    there’s more than one of us that think that the Carolina squat is not only ridiculous looking (which is why insecure people like the attention), but is a safety issue.

    Even if you claim to not care about others for safety, what about when your son gets into an accident, runs over a human, or something else because he can’t see anything that is within 50’ of the front of the truck?

    It’s both lmao

    I’m all for letting the kid learn, but you gotta at least monitor and take over when shit goes too far and he has to learn the hard way. Level that truck asap.
