Finally installed my lift this weekend. Pro Comp 6" took 3 people about 12 hours total, with NO air tools. To me, the rear looks a little too low. Not sure what I'm gonna do about it yet. Got her all cleaned up today for some pics. Let me know what ya'll think.

Nice! Needs some more meat on the tires though....:teethmast

Still running factory tires for now. Still searching for the best tire price.

Damn that whole truck flows, I like it

I was starting to feel I had the only 08 grille on the forum ...oh how I wish I could get a lift and still fit her in the garage...

Best tire price.... Cooper Discoverer S/T or STT many happy customers on here. Much more affordable than most other brands.

Truck looks great. Love the red. Whats the thing behind the window?

Looks like a light bar to me

Yea, 3" blocks isn't enough for the new models because the rake isn't as steep. There seems to be a few options:

- Change those for CST 4" blocks but it'll only gain 1". I assume that'd still be too low: PRG Products

- Add in some adjustable shackles: PRG Products

- Upgrade your springs to C-10 or C-30 Deaver Leaf Packs: PRG Products

Yeah, the rear is lower than the front. I would prefer level or slightly taller in the rear. I am considering the rancho lift. I don't know if anyone has had any problems with it or not.

The Rancho 4" seems like it might be a good lift. I've seen the drop brackets hanging on a wall and the boxed assembly seems that it would be a bit stronger for whatever that's worth. I'm guessing a few other components might possibly be a little better built as well. It's traditionall been quite a bit more expensive than the ProComp but with recent price restructuring, that might not be so true anymore.

Looks good, about an inch or 2 on the back.

This all started with me getting fed up with paint chips around the fender wells, so I decided bushwacker fender flares would solve the problem, but then again, they look better with bigger tires and you need a lift for bigger tires. Wow, this is getting expensive. I really like the black titan on the bushwacker website but I believe it has a 6 inch lift and that would be cuting it to close on clearance in my garage. Does anyone have the rancho with 35" 12.50 tires and bushwacker flares? I would love to see some photos.

How tall is your garage door?? Mine is 8' but my little brother's is less than 7' and I could fit in it if I take my luggage rack off. I could be wrong but I think a 6" lift on 35's could fit in alot of garages. Keep in mind the Rancho 4" comes out closer to 5.5".

 

[Lurchdubious]

Lookin' great! So are you getting closer to a tire decision?

 

[albonismo]

saweeet bro! that thing is lookin good! the rear is just a hair lower than the front, but if i were u, i would spend the money on tires first.

 

[felix55]

Looks very good now all you need is some bigger meats.

 

[Howie Kaluha]

Very nice! Get some more rubber!!

 

[SmokeEater829]

I already have the Deaver C-30's on it, so I'm guessing a block is now my only option. I'm worried that if I put a block back there my break lines etc. might not have enough slack. And as for tires, I'm pretty sure its gonna be the Toyo Open County A/T's. Still gotta check a few more local places, but I'm pretty sure I've got a deal that i can't beat. $1000 for all 4 mounted, balanced and lifetime rotations. Does that sound like a good price?

That is a light bar. I'm a volunteer firefighter.
