    Ran in to a couple of snags, but nothing this group couldn't handle.


    Thank you again to everyone who came out, and to Biscuits for hosting. I really appreciate everyone who helped get this truck lifted. Looking forward to the next mod day so I can return the favor. These are probably the best comparison photos I've got. I took measurements before the lift, and in a couple days I'll measure again to give the springs some time to settle down. As far as the ride, it's definitely stiffer, but what I was looking for.

    A couple other mods I got done over the weekend:
    Install Black Cat Custom Gauge Face. Unfortunately, I think I put the spedo needle back on a little off...so I'm currently reading ~2-3 mph lower than actual
    [​IMG]

    Install Armortech 1.5" cross bars & Curt cargo basket

    (I'm sure at least a few of you noticed the SCS boxes in the background......soon to come!)
