Round one complete. Rear 2" AAL installed

Didn't look like it in the pictures but you can sure tell in person. Depending on the weather I might get to install all the front end parts this weekend

Very nice! Looks like you have a leveling kit up front too?

Thanks. The truck has a 6" lift in it now. I added the aal and plan on 1" setting for the 5100s. Have a few things left after the front parts to feel comfortable that it is road trip worthy.

Sharp looking truck! Love the King Ranches. How are you're CV angles?

Nice!! Getting the uppers done today as the rain is looming in Houston.

1-high, CB angles are good right now but I won't know how bad they get till I get the struts in. Hopefully this weekend.


Here's a better shot of the rear lift



Uppers done

Gratuitous picture insertion

Wife got me a topper. Well mostly got it for the dog to ride under. Still need to set the 5100s up to level off the truck.
