From 3/5 drop to leveled out on 33s

[thesspirate]

Hey everyone, been a member for a while but its been forever since Ive posted something. Thought id share my truck with everyone since I had a hell of a time trying to figure out information on a leveling kit. So, after about a week of doing research on here and other forums, I pulled the trigger and heres what I came up with

Lowered with a McGaughys 3/5 kit and 305/40/22 Esky reps.




Here it is with stock suspension and cracked keys. I need new tie rods so when I do that, Ill get some keys and get rid of the stiff ride up front. 275/70/18 Fuel Throphys





Looks better with out running boards. So if anyone is curious, it IS possible to run 33s with a stock suspension. Rubs a little on full turn but its alright.

Any key, regardless if its a lift or stock is going to give crapy ride.
If your going to lift, do it right.

Pretty much, but it rides a hell of a lot better than it did when it as low.

Dont doubt it.
Im sure your aware of the damage key lifts do to front ends.

Do you have any plans to go higher?

Oh yea, I learned the hard way with t-bars on an old ranger I had. Its kind of "in-between stages" if you will. Im doing lift spindles with upper control arms, new tie rods, rear control arms and a pan hard bar and hopefully a big brake kit in the next month or so. Im waiting on buddy to not be so busy so we can use the lift at his place. I got a killer deal on these wheels and tires from my local shop so I figured Id jump on it while it was available.
