Lol ain't that the true. I'm hoping this added height will satisfy my crave for "lift".

KR, when do you plan on bumping up your suspension? I was talking to a guy at a suspension shop yesterday about the added 2" level on top of the rancho. He said he would put it on but it may put the driveshaft in a bind. Do your foresee the level being an issue?

I'd say not to use that shop... We will not have driveshaft issues with 5.5-6.5 inches of lift... Drive shaft issues start upwards at the 8" height... WE will be fine...

I forget on whether I have a 1.5" level or a 2" level... shame... lol.... I'm doing the leaf pack in the rear.. People on Ebay are starting to know the worth of the items they are selling and the prices are going up... ****!!! I was going to piece together a airbag system... Found a 5 gal tank for $35, the wiring and hoses for $15 but how be damned if they didn't want $200 for the bags and another $200 for the controller and distribution...

Ok cool. Yea there is a guy on here that did it to his and ran 37's. Of course he hasn't been on since 2011. I'm honestly considering just do the install myself if I can find access to a lift. Was already hard as hell putting the lift on with just some just some jacks. Not really hard just getting the truck high enough to put the tires back on. I did get a chance to speak to their painter though. I'm definitely going through him to paint the rest of my suspension components.

Yeah that yosoyommy guy hasn't been on in a while... 37's will force us to regear.... Probably the only way we wouldn't would be to drop the heavy MT and get AT tires... Or lower

Yea, that was the guy. I shot him a PM for the helluva it. Yea no 37's for this guy. I'll bump it up to 35R22's but that's it. If I do decide to regear then maybe 37's. Definately not giving up my m/t's.
