Mine was pretty tall stock, then I did the 2" largest tires and 2" on suspension and shortly after doing the last bit, I had to move. It kinda sucked to life my heavy dresser and stuff into the back, but it wasn't terrible. I did miss my bagged truck a little. It was nice being able to hit the switch and lay it out then only have to lift stuff 5" to get it in the bed [emoji16]

I'm debating on picking up an engine this weekend. I have never tried to load one in this but now that you mention it, hopefully his "lift" will go high enough to clear.

You should be alright with that, its when you get up to a 6" lift that your truck is not as easy to use as a truck..lol

Nice. Your truck has an intimidating look from the front. And I just noticed all my typos in my previous post after joking with you about the non-existent typo.

I think mine were mostly due to a combination of having about 4 hours of sleep that day and being in a hurry on my lunch break and typing on my phone.

Just doing cheapo spacers on the front, $30 is hard to beat, I will do bills on the front at some point.
The rear is getting the tuftruck 1211s and 1" spacers and a set of bilstiens .
I am not into big lifts it just makes the trucks bed to hard to use although they look cool like your truck I would just hate to lift 20 bags of quick Crete in the back of it..lol

Lol, no not doing a part time job.
I just finished building a new house ( Carpenter by trade) working 7 days a week for the last 2 yrs all most I don't think I have fully recovered yet..lol
I will wait awhile for wheels and tires and give the wallet a brake, like August or so.. :)
