my friend who I buy most of my parts through deals with procomp. He’ll be the one that ultimately does the install. He swears by them.

Either way, I love a lifted truck and I can't wait to see it. Any ideas on the wheels?

I'll say the same I said on IG, looks great man! Congrats! I want to lift mine, maybe towards the middle of next year I'll be able to swing it. I'm looking at Zone for mine though, it's literally BDS with less warranty for a lot cheaper.

For now I'm reusing the same wheels off the 2013 so 35x11.5 nitto terra grapplers on 20x9+1 fuel tritons. That set up is practically brand new. Too new to just right off and I don't want to lose any more money than i already have.

This time I was lazy and left the full 45 psi in the tires, the truck didn't even blink powered right through literally no difference from when it was aired down to full pressure.

All lined up!

Got it all cleaned up yesterday, and i finally took some decent pictures of the truck since i got it back. Even though they are just right in my driveway i think they came out great.
