I get average about 12ish city, and 16 highway with a 5.0L

What size lift do you have on it? An is it Rancho? (they usually have white shocks in there kits, im just guessing..?)

its actually a **** Cepek lift that with a little research found that its a BDS lift that has **** CEPEK just stamped on it but its a really nice lift and i couldnt beat the price of 900 bucks a rancho lift with extended radius arms{the big grey bars behind the tires} was around 1300 bucks.

Damn man, cant beat $900 for a 4in!!

Any more plans for it?

IMO i think it would look good with blacked out windows, head lights and tail lights.

Yes you can, but not for a BDS with ERAs. IMO one of the best kits out there for the TTB trucks.

Is it true after your first 3,000 miles you have to retighten all the bolts on the lift?

Some guy i talked to about my lift told me that an i just found it hard to believe, i thought he just wanted some extra money..
