That's the kit I was talking about. Easy to install too, if you can do brakes, you can do it

I had it on a 2wd, except it was stacked with 2" coils, and had 4" rear blocks and 1.5" lift shackles.

Had it with 285s

And then 35s

Well, I was going to put on the lightning heads today, but it started raining so that's getting put off. Taking the steps off made my truck look a lot better, but it exposed some ugly frame. So think at some point in the next couple months I'll paint the frame matte black, or at least the places that show from a side view.

I need some opinions on two things:
First, the cattleman bumper. Will it look good on a non lifted truck, or will it be too big?

Also, I kind of want a new grill insert, any suggestions are welcome, as long as it's black and not stock.

The lightning style grill looks pretty dagnab good on these trucks. BrowningSCrews truck has that grill; it'll be a great visual idea for you see if you'd want it or not. As grill choices, it's one of your best choices without paying a crap ton of money for the mesh grills.
