Looks great!
If I could afford a lift and could convince the wife that she could step up into it, a 4" is what I would get.

 

Did you have to do anything to the rear to make it sit level or does it sit level the way the kit comes by itself?

 

That's how it comes.

The kit comes with new 4" rear blocks to replace the stock 2" blocks, thus leveling it out with the 4" front lift.

 

I left out the 4'' blocks on mine.

I went the skyjacker AAL route and the truck sits almost perfectly level now.

 

I think you can convince her! The difference in getting in and out isn't that noticeable... probably helps though that I have the steps (which I plan to replace with some black ones eventually.)


And as copenhagen said... the kit makes it sit that way, i didn't do anything else to the rear.

Copenhagen... I'm still amazed you installed this kit by yourself. I don't know how I would have done it without some extra hands. I'm impressed! And thanks again because seeing pics of your truck made the decision for me!

 

very nice truck, were did u buy the kit from?

 

wat shocks are those? they look cooler than my rsx9000s when i had a rancho lift, and those were pretty cool.

 

I bought it online from 4 Wheel Parts back in November. Really fast shipping too.

The shocks are the adjustable RS9000X shocks.

Speaking of which... anybody with these shocks. How do you know what position you have it in. On the dial it says all the way clockwise to position 1 which is the softest ride, right? There's no real line or anything indicating which position you are in so I just tried it to find what its limits were and kind of picked a little above the middle. Is that all you do?

 

ive said it before but ill say it again, LOVE YOUR TRUCK! my favorite shortbed scab on the site, hell, my favorite scab on the site.



VTHokie your truck looks great now keep up the good work.

 

I'm a little late to the party, but VThokie...your trucks looks fantastic! Hopefully some day I'll put a 4" on mine.

 

I need to do a lift, that looks sweet.

 

Awesome truck! That sucks about the tint, another strange Jersey law. I was up there last year and stopped to put gas before returning the rental, guy came out of the office and damn near tackled me because I had grabbed the gas nozzle. Cant pump your own gas in Jersey! I had no idea. He said it was a safety thing.....strange.

Again, awesome looking truck. I love the factory 20's you have. I have the same wheels on my supercrew, but looking at yours I know I need to get rid of the Pirelli Scorpions. Have you noticed any power loss with the bigger tires? You didnt mention changing gears.

 

The 4" does look really good, its actually making me consider one now.

 

i had adjustable rsx9000's also or is there a difference with rsx9000x btw i had a red dial pretty clearly marked to adjust mine. my shocks were an ugly white though... i installed my kit in my parking lot (apartment) alone... it took a full 3 days from sunrise to midnight working with a headlamp, i hated life about then

 

Thanks! I'm really glad I went with the 4" Rancho. Its a great kit.

Haha... Welcome to Jersey... right? I hate the fact that we can't pump our own gas. I lived in southwest virginia for 5 years and I got used to pumping my own gas, it was a pain to come back and have someone else do it.. takes so much longer!! He said it was a safety factor... what a bunch of bs.. some of the gas stations I've been to, it would have been safer if they let me do it rather than who was working there! I just sold my Pirelli's this past weekend. I only asked $100 for them.. I never really liked them. The loss going with the bigger tires really didn't feel like much to me. I also got my Troyer tunes last night... its still early, but already it feels better than it did before. I am considering going up to 4.56 gears in the future.

That's pretty impressive. I know Copenhagen installed his by himself too and I have to give you guys props... I wouldn't have wanted to install it without and extra set of hands around!
