Looks sweet, I am still looking around to see what I want. I appreciate all the ideas. I might just do the body lift and be done with it. I like the way your truck looks. Will go with at bigger tire probably a 37 or 38 when I do all this. Still have a couple other things that I need to do also. So the modding begins

do they make these shocks for a 2wd? and can you still get more height by adjusting them if you already have a lift on the truck?

Please be sure to post pics when you do this... I have been thinking of doing the same thing. I already have an add a leaf and it sits pretty level without the 2 inch lift...

I am also very interested to see if anyone else has added the bilstein 2" lift shocks to their procomp stage one lift. I think this would be a cost effective way to go rather than spending another $1000 for front coilovers.

Wait, you're getting 35s and you're going to have 10" of lift!?

bud8817, Ya, you'rs looks great, but if you bottom out, your gonna get some seroius fender crumple. Ok if you stick to the highway..

hmm.. after lookin at your pix, your might have just enought room in the rear ,I don't know about the front though..

Not sure what kind of look your going for with 10.5" and 35's, that's just goofy azz..

Are you going to get gears?

10" of lift, with gears, I'd go with a set of 38x13.50s. The 38x15.50s might be pushing it.
