Fox 2.0 fronts are on got my inch back front sits at 38.25 and rear is at 39.5 so 1.25 in of rake just fine for me can already tell the difference in ride quality will be getting rears next week since i can tell a big difference now lol front takes bumps way smoother and bounces back much quicker.

Glad they worked out for you. I just put the rears on mine finally last week. They had been sitting in a box. Ride quality is great

After alot of consideration and research im between 2 tiees either goodyear dura tracs or hankook atms in 275/70/18 decided i think my stock wheels look good and im afraid ill regret changing them any opinions on tires? Also im considering getting tow mirrors anybody think itll look stupid on my reg cab? Im kinda going for the rugged look wwith the guard and eventual toolbox

I've been told that 275/70/18 can have some rubbing issues at full lock when used on the factory 18" wheels with he Fox kit at least on a 4x4 not sure if it applies to the 2wd though.

I have the same truck as you except in 4x4 and I wanted to put 275/70/18 Terra Grapplers on it along with the Fox 2.0s front and rear..... Now considering maybe a 17x9 wheel with 4.75" backspacing, and a -6 offset running a 285/70/17.

I'd love to keep my stock 18s but just can't get a straight answer as to the rubbing with 275/70s and the Foxs.

Nice build BTW!

Thanks and i know that bfg usually runs small so thats an option for you but i know my 2wd has much more space and travel than 4x4s you can tell that by the fact its easier to put in a strut on a 2wd but i know for a fact that hankooks run true my brother has 285/75/16 on his silverado and they are definately stuffed we had to trim alot but chevys have smaller wheel wells , have a relative thats a manager at discount tire and he said i shouldnt have an issue with the fit so well see but yeah im loving the foxes definately didnt disappoint i should have the tires in a few weeks so ill let you know how they fit
