    I think I only need 1" to be level. If it's still nose high, I'll put the overload in. Doesn't seem to hard to do, according to @VolcomTacoma. Lol

    If you can turn a wrench, you can pretty much work on anything on these trucks. I draw the line at electrical, but suspension, body stuff, no problem. Decided to cheap out and learn something and installed my Supercharger. Remarkably easier than I expected and now I feel alot better about doing anything engine related. It all comes down to nuts and bolts in the end. If anyone ever has any questions related to stuff on this truck, feel free to ask here or PM me, I've probably put a wrench on about 75% of the crap on this truck, and the rest of it is shit I don't wanna mess up, if I dont know itx I'll look it up to learn something new, or someone else here will.

    I'm not trying to act all high and mighty either, nor am I saying I'm an expert in anything. All I know are my experiences and mistakes with these trucks, and if I can share those with others to help out, I will!

    YouTube FTW! Lol.

    Seriously though. I agree with @VolcomTacoma. Half of it is having the right tools. Makes the job 100x easier. I've worked on previous cars many times. Just new to trucks and rear leaf suspension in general.

    these k02 should help me feel more confident going taking the beaten path. Hopefully not too confident, but will handle most terrains. Just curious how I'll do on sand mostly

    nice! Pair a rear locker with those tires and you can go a lot of places without issue. Hell even without the locker, just LSD, you can go a lot of places with good tires. When on sand, just remember to Air down!

    stopping on snow/ice for any vehicle can cause issues no matter the tire
