Is it because I have an 2WD not a 4WD truck? I really don't want to do any trimming.

If so, I may want to lift front and back. I don't want it to sit higher in the front and a little rake is OK.

In any case, I'm still 10-20k miles away from the lift. Plan on lifting when I need new tires. Looks like I may go with 33's anyway. My OEM are 31.9 now.

I tow a pretty heavy trailer and I don't want to change the gearing too much.

Thanks for your advice. Always appreciated.

BTW - if you don't mind, I may use your truck picture as my screen saver. The look is great!

I think a 2.5" Autospring with a 2" block in back w/33's would be perfect.Look for 9543 's truck.He has that setup on an FX2 and it looks awesome. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AUTOS...item1e6776a5ab When ordering let them know you have a 4x2 so they include the 2" block instead of the 3" block for a 4x4.

Man. I just love that LOOK!! I've gotta live with my 18" chrome wheels and tires with 6000 miles on my EB. Somebody have a pic of a stock 18" with the 2" leveler? Thanks and sorry to the "it's an engine forum" guys....this is the only one I read. Hozer

We understand. Clicking back one level IS strenuous. But we'd like to encourage you to do it. Not only does it keep this forum uncluttered with off topic content, but it helps you get more information by reaching a broader audience.
