The new shocks made a big diff as well,I have not put blocks in back yet!
Very happy the way it looks right now,may go with air bags down the road?
1 sway bar link broke and Kore sent new right away, was very happy as the supplier I got from is not selling their stuff anymore
Has anyone replaced control arms and with what brand?
How much did those 285 75 set you back and how are they in the snow?
My other winters are shot and need some new ones, anybody try the new Dunlups yet?

In short the ride is great on the highway, no more swaying and bottoming out. Offroad is very controlled and harshness isnt really that different from stock. Tire grip is great and noise is non existant. I am sure most people would have went 35" but I didnt want to lose much power and cause more front end wear. The 34" tire is a good comprimise I think.

In front I only gained about 2 1/8" while the rear maybe an 1". Install was fairly straightforward with rusted nuts being the only pain. All the parts looked to be of decent quality.

With the boat on top of the truck I hooked up my 7500lb trailer and noticed the rear didnt squat much more than stock. Maybe air bags wont be need as soon as I thought! With the lift installed it is not as level towing when it was stock though.

I still need to adjust the headlights and speedo. Suspension wise though, I think this truck is dialed in. My truck is no desert chase truck and should suit the logging roads I drive nicely. Axle shift F to B and L to R is hardly noticible so I doubt I will do anything in the near future to correct it. The guy at the alignment shop did recommend a steering stabilizer if I was going to get something.

For the price I dont think it can be beat!

I'll pass on the full lift though, I'm happy with it as is, just gotta do control arms and a track bar.
