    Something like this would work. I'll have to remeasure to see how much it has settled, but that is frame height right behind the shackle on my 33's.

    I just checked, the bottom of my frame is about 26" from the ground. I'll try to get another measurement at another spot and see if it's the same, just incase the lot isn't flat.

    Thanks! And that's after about 1" from the AAL and 1" from the removal of the bumper right? So you and I were about the same height before...

    Cool. I just went and re-measured mine and I'm still at 24" so no sagging after a year I guess. Now to save up some money for that AAL. Thanks!

    Got the truck weighed again today,

    5400lbs.

    No rear bumper/spare/RTT/Awning/Roof Rack and empty gas tank.


    Filled up the gas; took 20gals x 6lb = 120lbs. So right now I'm sitting at 5520. Dam what a fatass truck.

    Yeah... I measured Mr.TRD's when he still had his Deaver leaf pack on a while back and his was just over 30" and he had 33's on... He's only running ext travel Icons up front so I would say he's around a 3" lift or so.

    I wonder what it's at now with the Dakars.

    I asked him to get another measurement and he measured 28.5" with the Dakars on. Though he said he 285's that he has now only measure 32-1/4"... He had 295's on when he had the 30".

    I asked JW for a measurement too:popcorn:

    I feel like I need another 1" or so in lift in the rear. lol think with the truck loaded it's going to sit too low. My Driver side sits 1/2" lower. I measured the frame up front and it was even.

    What size tires are you running? Sounds like you need to bump them up 2" ;)
