Okay okay okay.....you nit picking bastards......it's just a leveling kit, but technically....it does lift it up! lol. I know what you mean though.

It's the autospring 2.5" front leveling kit and a 3" block in the back. It was about $250 shipped to my door, and the tires are 35x12.50x18 General Grabber AT2($240 something ea. from treaddepot.com for whoever asked). I'm uber happy with it, I have an appt tuesday morning at the stealership to get the trans re-programmed and an alignment. I installed the LK and mounted the tires myself, I work at a shop.

Question though, can they change the programming in the TPMS and set it at a different pressure? 40lbs seems a little rough, I'd like to lower it down to 32-34ish and see if that helps, without setting a TPMS code and the CEL.

Me too, I'm almost thinking I should have gone with black step bars. The grandpa steps are black, mudflaps are black, tires are all black......hmmm. What do you think?

Truck looks good! Although losing the mudflaps/step bars would make it look even better. Just my 2 cents.

Your rocker panels and doors will last a lot longer since you put both mudflaps and steps on. On my last truck, I didn't have either and the rock chips just killed my rocker panel.

Black steps would look good too.
