Level + Skins + Measurements

Got my truck back after the leveling kit and new skins were put on. I took a few quick measurements to get an idea of before and after's. They might be off like 1/16"th but not too much.

Ground to bottom of license plate frame: Before - 16 13/16" After - 21"

Ground to bottom of hitch: Before - 16 1/2" After - 18 5/8

Ground to peak of front wheel well: Before - 36" After - 39 5/8

Ground to peak of rear wheel well: Before - 39 3/8 After - 41 3/4

This is going from stock to adding:

2.5 AS front leveling kit
3" AS rear blocks
New P285/70R17 Bridgestone Dueler A/T REVO's - They are 32.8" Diameter so basically a 33" tire.

Not a HUGE lift but enough for me for the time being. I just can't afford the Rize 8" currently. Here's also some night pics I took from my camera. Being that it was so cold, my camera was acting kind of flaky so I know they look cheesy. And my wheels are FILTHY!




THis one is on a slight slope.


So hopefully tomorrow I can fit in a truck washing along with some daytime pics. Overall, I'm happy with it.......for now.

Roush Off road dual exhaust out the back is next.

Finally got my truck clean! The ride is smooth as ever and with the new height bump, it's like driving a new truck.

Whats up man? That looks sweet! I just did the same thing to my truck last week except for the 3" blocks, and I went with Toyo Opencountry A/T's Are you from Hoffman Estates IL??? If so you are only like 10-15min from me. I just finished up a job behind the Sears Centre. If your not from IL ignore that last sentence. There are some more pics in my gallery

Man Woodfield was CRAZY on Friday. I drove down to Addison to pick up my tires, I thought about stopping at Woodfield but I could see the parking lot from 290 and I said the hell with that!!! Hey, I did the masonry work on the Buffalo Wild Wings on 72&59 I am sure you know where that is, we should get some IL guys up there for a "meet" or something.
