looking to lift, no idea what to do...

You should be alright on clearance. I have 285/60R18's on my truck.

The truck sits very level. It looks really nice. I have a bunch of pictures on my profile page if you want to look at the lift more.

 

what all comes in the kit? the picture wont show up on that website.

you installed the lift yourself?

 

The kit comes with front and rear gas shocks, coils, and hardware I believe. I had it installed at 4 wheel parts since they guarantee their work. I was too nervous to do the install on my new truck and I do not have a coil compressor.

It's the best package deal if you aren't planning on off roading.

I would call 4 wheel parts and ask what all comes in the kit if you really would like to know. I tried looking on the internet too and was having a hard time finding out what came in the kit.

 

awesome. i think im gonna go with this kit, it looks great on your truck. i dont want anything overkill monster truck...

 

I was in the same boat too bro. A lift larger than 3" doesn't make sense if you are not serious into off roading. I'm more than happy I went with a 3". Do you have an off roading store near you?

 

O and you're girlfriend will be a lot happier getting into your truck with a 3" lift rather than a 6" or higher. It's a little more user friendly for sure.

 

I have a 3" Tough Country Suspension Lift (Spacers and AALs) that I picked up for 250 from www.Suspensionconnection.com

I didn't notice much difference between stock and after-lift ride quality... and I've put 30k miles on it since having the lift.

I'd recommend it. I probably off-road about 2x a year in moderate terrain and use it mostly to commute to work.

If ALL you are doing is diving to school and your GFs house - then you don't need a more advanced suspension.

If you end up adding a custom front bumper (allpro, ARB, fabfour, etc.) - you might want to consider getting the coilover lift.

Just my $.02 since everyone here seems to hate spacers and AALs.

 

yeah, all they do is jeeps though. they dont even really do jeeps well...

haha, and yeah. my girlfriend already told me not to do something stupid like jack it 40 feet in the air haha. she said if i go more than 3"s i had to add steps so she can get in when shes wearing a dress or a skirt lol

 

haha ya if you jack your truck up, you're definitely going to get "small dick" comments from people.

 

yeah...no idea what that means lol

 

Big lifts are usually done by people who are trying to compensate where they are lacking haha.

 

haha, yeah... thats true...

 

Well good luck with your lift. Get some pics posted when you get it done.

 

This how how my truck sat with the toytec 3" spacers and AAL

It was stiff but not unbearable.
I wouldnt get spacers again though, I have coilovers now. I would recomend OME 885 coils and some new shocks and an AAL in the rear, you will keep a nice ride with longer coils, rather than compressing them with a spacer.

 

i just lifted mine with the trailmasters 3" spacers in front and 2" blocks w/ new trailmasters ssv shocks, it rides just fine to me...total with labor was $566
