Lift Is On

[Brandon X]

Finally got my 3" Rough Country lift on. Here's some pics. Nothing crazy, but I like it, let me know what you think. This weekend ill clean it up and take some more pics, hopefully the sun comes out.







Got the rear block, Nitro 9000 shock upgrade, black boots, also put in poly swaybar bushings and fixed a broken leaf spring on my drivers side. Oh, and new moog ball joints. My suspension is all set now.

Next thing to do is rollpan, colormatched front bumper w/ valance. Both are sitting in my basement just gonna wait a couple months to do it.

Lookin' good. Are those Soft 8's your winter rims? The reason I ask is that I see your rims in your sig. That'll look pretty nice with the chrome rims on there. Those clear corner lights look good with your white rig!

Also, if you're putting on a roll pan and color matching your bumper are you going to color match your door handles, too?

Yup those are soft 8 15's. In the spring im gonna be putting on some 26s, I think these:

And paint the inserts white to match. They sell em on eBay for $2.6k shipped, mounted and balanced w/ locking lugnuts.

Probably just gonna leave the door handles black, I like the little bit of contrast.

Yeah im undecided on the wheels. All I know is I want them painted white or have white inserts.

blackcoffee: It rides like complete shit at the moment. Hopefully these shocks break in soon and the ride improves but it totally sucks right now. I don't like the cragars at all. They'd look a lot better on some 35's and I had a little bigger lift like bowtiefreak. I should have went with 17's instead of the 15's I would have been a lot happier I think.

BigDaddy: I've seen those spammed on my craiglist. I think the dude spams all major cities in the US with his ad. The ones for $2k are ugly as all ****, but the other ones aren't half bad.

looks good, I hear the shocks on those kits suck (same thing with my cepek shocks, I took off and replaced with bilstein).

One point of advice, where you live take the boots OFF. trust me, salt and crap gets in there and eats the shock away. I ****** of my bilsteins due to the boots filling up with water and salt. boots are for better climates where tons of salt are not used
