Well installed the keys and 2 inch spacers this morning.It sat before at 36 1/2 inchs all the way around with factory keys cranked it now sits at 38 1/2 with front keys still having more to go.Big decision now is tire size to go with.Im using the 20x8.5's rims .Thing is i have the ss bumper and i can only trim a little bit on the inside or youll see it too bad.Also my son was help washing it this morning,he was afraid,last month he helped me and i left 220 grit wet paper in wash bucket and he washed entire side of truck with it,lol needless to say i repainted entire side again.So what tires to go with and brands.Ive run kuhmos before and bfgoodrichs all terrains.Heres some pics.One more thing if i go body lift ill have to find steps for it wife will never be able to get in.:)

well i just scored a set od 275/65 20's locally for 625 ill know this week how they fit

Looks good, will look even better with some bigger tires under there. Sucks about the sand paper. I would try buffing it out with a wool pad and some compound

Tires should be here today,made up my own front shock extenders rides much better.Swapping rear shocks with something i have that are longer today.Im pretty sure the tires are gone to rub,i really didnt want to go 3inch body lift but enough to get them to clear if need be.So thinking of getting 1.5 lift from something else,1500 pickup and making it work.Will see how much i need if i need any.If not 3inch itll be.

how did you make your own shock extenders. I need some BAD. Im toping out the shock just sitting still.

And if you want more lift check out zone offroad, they sell a 1.5" body lift. You cant even tell its there.
