I was going to wait a while before lifting my truck, but came across a pretty good deal on a lift and wheels. I'll probably still wait another month or 2 before I install it. What I picked up yesterday is a 7" Stage I ICON lift w/ dual steering stabilizer and OUO rear blocks. The wheels are 22x14 XD 799's with 37x13.5 Toyo MT's. I'm going to order the OUO ALA's before I install to replace the factory radius arms. I'm not sure if I will keep the wheels or try selling to get the 22x11 Hostages. I'll try the 14's first, but if they're to wide I'll sell.

Gonna be sick man. Are you going to upgrade to the 4 link front? Cant wait to see it lifted. Hurry up and put it on so i know what it rides like, im having the hardest time choosing between the icon 7-9 and the pure performance 8".

I'm going to add the OUO ALA's. I have a few things keeping me busy, but I hope to have it on within the next month or 2. I don't want to go into my savings for the ALA's so I need to hurry and file my taxes to use that money.

It also seems that I'm missing the 2 sway bar links. The guy I bought the loft from is getting with the guy who removed the lift to see what could have happened to them. The good thing is ICON sells the individual parts if I have to order them.

I'm also going to order the adjustable trac bar along with the ALA's.

Same exact wheels/tires I have. You get them from a guy on the westbank with the silver 08? Going to look great!

Extreme- I picked everything up from Joe on the westbank. Wasn't going to get the wheels but got a pretty good deal. I'm not certain I want to run the 14" yet. I need to come take a look at your truck to see how they fit. I'm trying to have mine looking as clean as yours.


Fine_style- thanks. Yea I first started out on cardomain before I knew about this forum. I learned from the F-150 to go ahead and spend the money from the start. Cheaper in the long run.

Thanks brother! I think the 14's will look sick and I will let you know once I get it back from the body shop.

AMP steps arrived yesterday and have already installed them. I got a quick video yesterday, but not any pics yet since it's in the shed.
