Thanks. I'm running 295/65/20 (~35.5") on 20x9 +1mm offset wheels. Slightly taller and slightly narrower than your normal 35x12.50s.

Anyway, now I am trying to round up a friend or two to do the install with me in the next few weeks. Save me 600-800 bucks that a shop would charge.

Plan on selling my Rancho QuickLift leveling set shortly after.
Post pics once you have it installed

Ride is great, but to be honest ride quality will depend more in what tires/size you decide, also rancho has 3 options of shocks for their 4" or 6" lift kits. I choose the rs7000, (similar to beilstein shocks)
No problems at all with the lift, is bolt on system, and the most important is a one piece subframe, all other brands of lifts use several parts as a frame.

No welding with RC, if you have a 4wd a little cutting is involved, 2wd is straight up bolt on and drive.

Did you get new tires yet by chance? Please post some updated photos when you do, would love to see. Truck looks great.

No tires yet. Still a few months away. I'm still deciding on several things:

New wheels (Tuff T10 with red accents)

New wheels 18" or 20" (18" are less expensive)

*or*

Keep the OEM 20" FX wheels and paint them black with red accents

Tires...waiting for the Nitto Ridge Grapplers but there's no estimated availability date yet. (35x11.5x18/20)

Decisions, decisions, decisions

Thanks for the compliment.

Using 4" rear block so my truck still has actual rake to it and isn't levelled as I tow.

Currently have a RC 6" on my truck but will be dropping it down to 4" since I'm rolling on 35s. 37s would look great on the 6" but I'm not gonna do that.
