there are some problems. the upper a-arm angle is terribly bad. i think the spring may have to settle a bit before it gets ok, but its so low and near the coil. i was sent one defective u-bolt but i made due. here are some pics. took me 6 hours to install. the front was actually the hardest. the rear i had to flip the axle back to stock due to my drop kit. pics are in my gallery.

 

THAT IS SICK! Very Very nice!

Can you still fit in the garage? How high is the cab?

 

Nice man! I am waiting till I get some more money and Im gettin the 3" SkyJacker too. I have the a grey regular cab also, so now I know what mine will look like.... Couple of questions....

How does it handle off road? Does the upper control arm hit the springs on full extension? You can use the stock wheels right? I cant afford lift, tires, and wheels all at the same time.

 

Looks great!!

 

Very hot. So how much did it actually lift the truck? Did you take any before/after shots or measure?

 

Miami, FL? Nice! Where'd you have the work done?

 

OMG... thats amazing! Thats exactly what I wish I could do to mine! How big are the tires? From the pics it looks like your not level?

 

i did the lift myself with a few friend over on FTW. the rear is actually a bit higher than the front which is fine. i like the raked look. its a bit of a mission to drive the truck now since the alignment is adjusted for a lowered application. im getting my alignment tommorow. the lift is a 3" lift out front and 2" out back. i dont have a garage so i wouldnt know and i havent taken any measurements, but its high as heck!

 

Any potential problems up front with spring clearance?

 

i put a bunch of other pics in my gallery so check that out and let me know what you think one pic has the angle.

 

does that kit come with new knuckles and does it drop the front differential also new coilovers or just spacers

 

it brings new coils and shocks for the front and an add-a-leaf out back. i also bought skyjacker shocks for the rear. it doesnt bring any knuckles. i have a 2wd so i didnt have any big problems. although i had to re-flip the axle back into stock form.

 

What kind of wheels/tires?

 

Eagle Alloy 187's 17x9 and Nitto Terra Grapplers 295/70/17

 

great looking truck... hopefully i will be in the lifted club soon

does anyone know if skyjacker will break the lift apart by pieces?? all i need is the add a leaf and everyone i talk to says there is no part number for it. HELP!!
