6" tuff Country lift with 35's on factory rims at a tick before full lock touch the lower control arm. I will upgrade rims and possibly switch to 37's-38's when these tires wear out.

P.S. first pic, that's my 3-legged cat under the pumpkin, 2nd pic is my 2-legged son.

Les Schwab Pleasant Hill.

They were even nice enough to install my Pitman nut for the PSC Bracket since I didn't have a torque wrench rated high enough or a deep enough socket. Normally they won't install parts not purchased through them.

Hey, you can't compare your daughter to your lift . What amount was that again.....that looks enormous!!! 6" looking like that should easily clear 37"s or larger.

6", I was satisfied with the 35's, but now that I am used to the truck, I can't wait for these to wear out so I can get new rims and 37' or 38's.

From the side with the stepbars she doesn't look tall to me, but when I look from behind she does look huge. Hard to see in the pics because they are on sloped parking so it makes her appear shorter.

The reason I took these pics the way they are is because before the lift I spent countless hours trying to find comparison pics of before and after of a 4" and/or 6" lift. So I made sure to take these pics next to a specific vehicle to give a better idea of height for anyone who tries to search like I did.

This gives a good comparison to two Honda Accords.

Yes, I took the side steps off my truck and replaced them with the electric AMP steps. Truck looks better, taller and the steps are one of the best mods.
