okay here are the pics. Il have more of the build tommorrow, im beat. i started at 1230 yesterday and finished around 3 in the morning. still need to get the rear gap gaurds on and paint a couple things.

First off, i drove it 45 miles so far, havent rubbed once. so HA to everyone that says its not possible, i did very minor trimming of the front valance.

Heres the specs on the truck

6" procomp
Fabtech Dirt logic coilovers cranked 2"
PA 3" body lift

procomp AAL
Bilstein 7100 rear shocks

Toyo 40X15.5XR22 tires
KMC XD series Balzac Wheels 22X11 with 5" of backspacing

2WD front valance so now frame rails showing
I didnt cut my tailor hitch like the body lift suggests, instead i just modified the way it mounts up to clear.

Ask any questions you want!
Onto the pics!

looks superb bro! You have definately changed my mind on a body lift! One of the top trucks on the site now! Did you make custom gap guards like we talked about?

p.s.-- your rear bumper looks up there too far? maybe its just the pic or my eyes..

yeah i made some sheet metal rear gap gaurds, but i changed my mind on the design after i got the lift in front of me. and yes the back bumper looks almost like it got pushed in at the top. its not perfect. i just wanted to get out of the shop haha. all will be totally finished within the week with my new brakes!

the bumper does look "high", not bad but "high"
