getting ready to do the deed
Please help!! I know nothing about a lift. I'm going to get the 2.5 Ready Lift and add a leaf, (where do you get that?). I have an '06 XLT Crew 4x4. I can't afford new wheels so I have to stick with the factory 17's. I want to put Toyo Open Country M/T - 35x12.50R17 on it.
1) Will those tires fit?
2) Will it look good? Anybody got semilar pics?
3) Wish my truck came with the 18's
Thanks for you responses.

Sprngbender on ebay is Auto Spring Corp.

They have both front 2" & 2.5" spacer and rear 3" block kits.
There's tons of pictures of 2.5" w/ 35s or 325s... a few with AALs or other rear blocks.
I might have some FX4 18s if you're looking to upgrade.

I got some dusty autosprings that I have for paper weights. Thier weld job they did sucks, bolts came off with my a twist of my wrist. I welded for last 12 years. There welds look let buble gum painted black. Got pics of your 18's?
Some basic ones... I can go in greater detail if needed.

not bashing Autospring. Just dummie that happened to weld the set that they shipped me. I call to see if they would replace them. They said yes, if I paid for shipping both ways. Sorry service IMAO.

2) Yes. Many around here do, but I don't. Sorry.
3) For off-roading 17's give you just a little bit more sidewall. Good on the trail. I bought 17" aftermarket wheels just for that reason. Plus, 17" tires are cheaper.
