Show your 3" BL fellas!!!
I have to say, I like the 35's best, but the 33's look good. I thought they might look small, but they look pretty good. That's probably what I'll go with. Looks like a 3" BL and 33's are a really good compromise of looks, performance, power and convenience.
Thanks to all you guys who posted. Special thanks Wandell. I think your truck is what many of us are striving for.

Here's mine with 35's (old pics). No rubbing whatsoever. I just trimmed the front valence and drilled a couple of holes through the gap guards and zip tied them to the frame. I used black zip ties, you can't tell they are there:




Here is a shot of my old truck with a 3" body lift and leveled out with a Tbar crank sitting on 315/70/17 (35's). I ran these on the stock Fx4 wheels with only minor rubbing on the frame at full lock. I ran them for 60,000 miles with no problems.

On our vehicles, I'd say you're probably looking at $800 after everything is said and done. If you can find a shop to do it for $600 or less, I'd jump on it. You could probably handle the install yourself though, it's not that bad, just time consuming.
I forgot about your old truck! That thing is sweet.....Thats basically my plan when I need new tires, 3"BL, crank the T bars and run 35's on my stock wheels. I don't know why, but I like my stock wheels more than anyother wheel out there.
$600 for an install????? im def not paying that wow. I'd rather buy the 5" RCX suspension kit for a grand and do it myself lol I was told you need to lift the bed and cab at the same exact time for these trucks.. is that true? if not I will do it myself
not at all man. the cab and bed can be lifted at diffrent times, i dont know who told you that but, all you have to do is take some measurements so your bed and cab line up again. I did my body lift at home in my driveway. it took about 8-9 hours to do it. so your better off just doing it yourself.
im not sure who i heard it from. I thought there was an issue with the back window being knocked out or some **** HAHA I dont know never paid attn b/c i never planned on doing a BL. What do you have to measure? shouldnt it just go right back where it was? theres no adjusting is there?
