Here is the lift I got with actual leveling kit but is why I ended up replacing axles twice and got a real lift
You replaced cv's twice??
I've still 3/4" to the "safe zone"

Potholes and such now aren't already the most fun. gonna need new rubber before I can afford a real lift, so was thinking about 285s-305s and going up an inch or two on height
You'll be fine man

I would alrdy have 20s if I wasn't such an impatient person
I have been driving my truck on stock rims and tires for 2 1/2 years and waited about that long to find the truck itself, so I don't mind waiting to get exactly what I want.

Depends on the truck and wheel for me. Will stick with 17s if I can find the style I want. But I think 20s are still good size for 35s, still leave enough tire.

That's not bad at all.

Yeah but I had 2.5" of lift in the front if not more and with those aftermarket keys you can turn them up beyond the stock setting but they just did not work on my truck...when I just turned the bolts up at first, I was fine other than suspension being stiff as a board

Yeah that is good that your patient...I agree with you with your reply back to backed up. I'm fine with my helos but 20s with 35s look good and I want to re hear my tranny and get more hp before I get 20s with 37s
