What size rear block did you end up going with? and do you have any pics directly at the side?

Looks great man.

Are you still running the 305/55/20 tires with the new lift? I'm thinking about getting it but I only want to run 33's, I'm a little concerned it will look goofy with smaller tires, but yours looks great

Yes I am. My truck is set at 5.5 in the front, with the 2 inch block in the rear. Pic with my new 20x10 -19 hostiles.

Missed this question. I did it myself in 4 hours total in my garage. I've swapped front leveling blocks so many times now that I can install a leveling kit in 45 minutes lol

Thx for the info Aric.

reading over your build thread & tryin to figure out if you went with the 4" or 7" spindle setup? Also, can I run a leveling kit on top of the 4" spindles? Just trying to understand my options.

I did the 4.5 inch kit first, then did a 1 inch spacer on that, then went up to the full 7". You can run a level on top of the 4, which is all the 7 inch kit is besides the difference in rear blocks. I ran the 2 inch blocks in the rear for bro lean.

Thx for clarifying. Any noticeable ride difference between the two setups?

Nope. Biggest difference you're going to see is going to be whatever tires you chose. Both ride great.
