I'd say about 2-3 inches. Ill measure tomorrow for ya if youd like. The setup cost me about 4 grand. $1400 for lift. $750 for install and alignment. $1650 for tires and wheels.

Ya if you saw my threads about 6 months ago I was asking about lifts. Took me that long with budgeting, working and coming into a nice sum of money for high school graduation. Decided I was gonna pull the trigger on it since I plan on buying the truck from my parents after college. I bet you could do the lift yourself but I have no level ground at my house and no mechanical experience to take it to a garage. Cut down on costs a bit. Maybe pick up some spacers for the front wheels so you could run stockers until you got enough money for some 35"s or something
