Daystar Kit Installed...with pics

Here is my XLT 2wd before the installation of the Daystar 2.5" leveling kit


...and here is the after pic. I'm very pleased with the new stance of the truck!

Looks great! Really makes the truck look like a truck should . I am thinking about this lift as well as I want to level it out. What are other options for lifting the front of the truck? (money not an issue)

Maybe, but don't tell the wife.

Actually, It's a 2WD, so I think I have plenty of tire, but wheels are always an option. I think a bull bar is the next mod. I put a set of running boards from a King Ranch on there Thursday night, and they came off Friday night. Did not like that look at all... off to EBAY with them I guess.

Yeah, some mods are trial and error. Even though somtimes it's a loss in $$$, it's still fun toying with the truck.

Between Daystar and all the other brands, there are a lot of different inch increments you can buy for these leveling kits - 1 5/8", 2", 2 1/2", etc. I have a 2004 XLT 4x4 Screw that I'd like to add a Daystar to but I'd like to still keep just a slight rake/gate (whatever it's called). Does anyone know what kit I should throw on it?

Thanks in advance.

Or you could put one of those big red "R" stickers on the back and go street racing.

Big R Sticker

Yea, everytime I see a rice burner with a big sticker, I am overcome with envey. You have to have a really special vehicle to put on the big "R".
