Just curious what level kit you have on and do you have any pics of the suspension with the lift and the level kit on? Specifically the cv angle or the upper a arm.

Thanks. I really want to upgrade to coilovers too.

I'm going to bring the truck over to my garage in a bit and get to work getting the leveling kit out, but I'll grab some pics and put them on before I leave of the angles. although I would love to get her as tall as possible at the moment i have no need because I'm only running 35s but i think that I'll be going up as soon as these tires wear out. The set up I will do later are some FOX coilover up front with rear piggyback, and deaver springs replacing the blocks or something like that.. although i could see if i was in your situatiion with rubbing.. right now i know i don't have the funds for those suspension add ons i would probably do bilstiens 5100 like fx4 for life 79 has on his rize cus for the price their great and a bigger block, eventually adding traction bars

looks good.

on the 6" bds for the 09+ you can fit 37's on stock wheels so depending on your backspacing you might be able to squeeze them on those wheels.

ok so got the truck finished just had a hard time managing to get online to put pictures up.. love that i got the rake back and the ride is so much better(no more clunk from the suspension maxing on rough roads)

Here is a quick pic after the spacer removal

06yz250f,
thanks, when I talked with BDS they said that you had to run the stock tires on the stock wheels, and that ideally you want 5.5" of bs with 37s.. that being said after what BlackPlatBDS went through with his 37s I would def want to run coilovers I do know theres a member running 37x12.5 KM2 with just a BDS, although I believe his tires only measure 36.4 or such not sure tho...

Devin4X4,
Thanks man, and yeah even with the level and 35s everytime I saw a new generation lifted truck I wanted it so bad. right now I'm happy...although thats just for now

Desert Dawg,
Thanks!! you have no idea what your truck did for me, its the reason i looked into a lift at all I started with interest in the rancho system and later went with the BDS... I don't know if i should thank you or not i've spent so much money on my truck but still your truck is the best

P.S. if you look at the picture above you can really see the hits to the coil because of the spacer aand then maxing the suspension .. and by the way zero rub with +18 offset with BDS and no level
