I'm digging that setup but the exchange is killing me up here in Canada. I priced out and it comes in at $3200 Canadian. Screw that.
Yeah that's pretty expensive. Any local dealers with better prices? Theyve got other options that'll make the price much lower. I've played around on there and built a set for $1700. Not sure what that would end up costing you.

All clean and I decided to throw the rear blocks on. Now I just need to get the new level put on. I had 3/4" of rake before the blocks. Now I have 1.75". The new level should put me back at my desired 3/4.

I suggest upgrading balance weights though because mine were falling off when I was unpackaging it all so I had to get them re balanced but custom offsets is covering the cost. Yes now I'd actually prefer a little less poke but it's hard to judge when I can't see anyone's setup in person.


I have almost the same set up, 1.5 level and a -19 wheel 10 wide. I guess a -12 would be perfect but I still like mine. I put a lund sx series fender flare on that sticks out maybe an inch and a half and looks factory and I think it looks great. Let the haters hate about "the poke" it looks good and is not too aggressive. Quite frankly nothing looks worse than huge tires on factory thin wheels sucked all the way into the wheel well.

Thanks man I couldn't agree more. I'm so happy with how it turned out. Hopefully I'll get time to do the level today. It looks awesome in person.

Thanks! I don't feel like the ride is really much different. Mainly id say with each mod its starting to actually feel like a truck instead of a family suv.

That's awesome! I swapped out my stock 1.25" rear block for a ReadyLift 3" block a few months back, it made the truck bouncy so I put the stock one back on. I loved the height it gave my truck, and I want to go back to it. I'm hoping new Fox or Bilstein shocks will help with the ride.

I went with the 2.25 from halo lifts. I didn't want to push it too much. I just wanted to maintain a 3/4" rake.

So you are going with a 2.25 in the front and a 3" block in the rear? I'd like to see how that looks, maybe ill do the same.
