    Anyone got any recommendations on a decent 3 inch leveling kit I have 5100s right now I was going to add to them to get some more lift and try to clear 285s

    bilsteins all around with the fronts @2.5

    had ome 884's but decided not to put them on because the actual lift achieved on TW with the regular cabs varied a lot, and I didnt wan't too much or too little.

    Prolly gonna get some eibachs because the ride is STIFF right now

    Any trimming? And I was thinking about getting 884s but I wasn't sure the lift height and the ride quality

    I Fkn love it. I think they look better on reg cabs than access and double. I bought 2 extra clamps from bestop so that mofo isn't goin anywhere. Drove it 4 hours through rain at 70 mph last weekend and had no problems, no leaks. Literally just a couple drops of water in the very back corner.

    I trimmed a little bit of plastic but nothing major. And the 285 AT's didn't really rob me of any noticeable power. I saw one reg cab on here say he only got 2 inches with the 884's and another person got 2.75 inches. I didn't wanna have too little lift and rub like crazy, but I didn't wanna have too much lift and get UCA's. One day I'll probably get UCA's and when that day comes I'll get eibachs and put the bilsteins down at .85.

    The ride is stiff but IDK if thats more because of my E rated tires or the tremendous preload on bilsteins

Now looking for Radio/HU upgrade. and maybe a lift way down the road.
    4banger did you get that filter off yet ? I think that was you with the stuck on oil filter.

    Nope still stuck, I have the worst luck with vehicles. If I went and bought a new truck today it'd catch fire tomorrow

    If I planned on getting UCAs would 885s be to much if I plan on getting a bumper in the next few months? :cool:
