I have the 5" RCD lift, it is awesome! It sat a little lower in the rear, so I also added a Pro-comp add-a-leaf because I tow a big trailer and need the rear suspension integrity. Other than that, it made the truck look great, and with the 33" Hankooks, it looks even better. I will have to get some updated pics for you. Give me a few minutes, and I'll post them up.

Ok, here we go. These are a few pictures that I just went out and snapped in front of the house. Forgive the crappy angles, I am no photographer, and I was trying to keep the sun out of the frame so you can see how the truck sits.

Appearance Mods:
2000 F150 Lariat Scab 4x2 Short bed, 5" RCD lift with Procomp add-a-leaf, Eagle Alloy Wheels powdercoated black, 285/75-16 Hankook DynaPro M/T's, 4
x4 Front Valence w/ Clear Fogs & HID's, Lightning Headlights w/ HID's, Front and Rear bumpers coated with spray bed liner, Limo tinted all around with Brow... etc....









My new exhaust, Magnapak out in front of the rear tire. The tip is coated with VHT wrinkle paint, looks amazing.

Here's another question I already have a 3 in BL with 315/75/16s would 8 inches of lift be to much for 315s?
