Are there any PhotoShop guru's on here that could do some magic and see what this looks like on my truck?? (posted on previous page). These are the wheels I'm leaning towards and the same tires I ordered, almost the same size but close enough.

Did you try the "configurator" on the kmc/xd page? It lets you pick truck trim model, lift size, and then wheel/tire combo. It won't add the camper top for you, but I think you'll have a pretty good idea of the look.

I like the bronze on the XD's! Bronze always goes great with white as well. Just my 2cents. I'm saving my duckets for a set of bronze methods.

was hust hoping to get lucky with some photoshop since it’s got the right tires on as well. Thank you for the idea though

Where did you guys find the torque specs for front and rear suspension, as well as rear blocks ? I’ve probably read through about every leveling thread on here and haven’t found any mention of a chart or anything.

Anyone have issues with your truck steering tracking left and right after a leveling kit? Feels like the steering tries to go back to center but actually goes past center. So if I correct the steering to the right then the steering wheel comes back past center and crooked to the left pulling the truck left.
The dealer did the alignment and said they can't find nothing wrong. Sounds like an electric power assisted steering issue to me.

Tip..
I unclipped/unbolted the hard brake lines and let them hang free behind the strut tower and it allowed me to leave the calipers on..
I bungee corded the knuckle to the frame after it was free and then worked on the strut.
tip...
loosen the rear lower control arm bolt(s) but do not remove.. It let's the lower C arm move without tension. You can now easily install the now longer strut with either the top or bottom installed and temp nutted first..
Speeds up the job to about 45 min a side once jacked up and tools are out.
Tie rod ball joint 45ft lbs
Sway bar end link 45ft lbs
Blocks are 110ft lbs (according to readylift)
