Default Lift Finally On

Well it took all day Saturday, but my friend and I got the Rancho kit and a few other things on.

I actually added a 1" Daystar spacer up front, and a 1.5" lift shackel in the back. I also did new rotors up front and Wagner thermo quiet semi metalic pads all around.

I think the back may need to be raised a little, but I want to let the suspension settle and then I'll see if I have to put a little bigger block in the back. I want the truck to sit either level or have a slight rake to it.

He said it's a Rancho, so I'm assuming 4"...not including the 1" Daystar spacer up front, and a 1.5" lift shackel he said he added.

Looks good

20 x 9 Ballistic Wizards and 35 x 12.5 Toyo O/C MT's. And yes Rancho only made a 4" kit. I managed to find one after they stopped producing them for the 04-08's.
