Literally an hour to install, kit is as @Doubeleive said $50 shop shouldnt charge more than 250-300 to install soup to nuts. Depending where you are/go

Edit: took me 45 min on passenger side and 15 on drivers. Thats with getting tools out/putting away and doing something with one of kids in the middle of it.

I'd gladly spend that. I'm excited to get it and you think it will fix the rub for sure?

No, i never said that ‘for sure’ part.tell me your tire and rim size exactly. You seriously prob could have gotten away pulling the fender liner in a little. Simple tools and a hacksaw. You never really said or showed where it was rubbing. Pics would be nice.

I'll grab the tire info ASAP, I know they are 22" of course and I think 245 but I'll get the exact model. Thanks for the reply.

So i have 285/70 17’s.... mine are taller than your 22’s, width is same etc. i have no rub. where exactly are you rubbing? you could pull your fender liner and fix it easily but yes the 2” rc level will stop your rubbing. Dont be surprised when you get them they are only gonna be about 1.5”, but will give you 2” of lift. This will basically level the truck, front to back.

There’s an easier way to do this. Instead of cutting the inner fender liner use zip ties. If you look under your truck at the back side of the liner you’ll see several brackets that are there to keep things in place but done move. All you do is drill 2 holes where the tire rubs and put the zip tie through to the bracket you chose and pull it back. You can do this in as many places as you like. Our suspension guy showed me this because my 305/45/22 rubbed in the front when we lowered it.
