I have bills at 2.1 and was looking for some pics to see roughly how it will look. also anyone install this kit and were there any un-forseen issues. or does the kit have everything included for install. I have not found any issues on line as far as brake lines,eletrical etc. thanks

Everything is included and installation is fairly easy. If your truck came with tow hooks from the factory you'll have to remove them for the body lift. I bought the non tow hook inserts for the front bumper to fill in the holes. I have billsteins on the front set at 2.1 with 295/65/20's on 20x9 +1 offset wheels and the dual exhaust tips can be loosened and rotated up a bit to align with the new bumper height.

Wow! Looks great, i love that blue! Unfortunatly when i bought mine there was no Laramie available in blue with the Rambox.
That's the 3 inches not the 1,5 body lift, right?
And in rear, any coil spacers?
I have bils at 2.1 too and would like a little more height, but do not want to put 2k on a 4" lift..
How did you trim your chrome bumper in rear?
I'm scare to grind it and rust to appear.
Thanks!

3" performance accessories body lift. No coil spacers or anything in the rear. Trimmed bumper with air powered cut off wheel and coated the cut area of the bumper with por 15 rust inhibitor. It's been through 2 winters and no signs of rust.

You probably heard it a thousand time....but your truck looks awesome!!

I am hesitating between the 1.5 and the 3 inch BL,

Any issue with let say, the radiator hoses kinking or any wires overstreching with the 3 inches?
Any body lowering the rad?

Cant wait to add a bl to my bills at 2,1 like you

Everything has been has flawless since the install. No additional squeaks,rattles or problems of any kind. I adjusted the stock exhaust tips up to match the new bumper height. Thanks for the compliments!

It's the performance accessories 3" kit (P/N PA60203). It comes with the bumper relocation brackets and I added the wheel well gap guards for the front (P/N PA6627).

HovtOaxuSs2uITL61ckpVg.jpg View attachment 144162 Bilsteins at 1.4 and PA 3" .. no issues at all . Been this way almost a year I guess. I had a 1.5 BL before the 3 but it still didn't look like a 4x4 to me . It still don't look as high as some but I also went for the better ride at 1.4 vs what I had at higher settings and used the 3" bl to compensate some for the lower Bilstein setting I went to

I have a 3 Pa body lift with gap guards. Iv had the BL since 10 and no issues at all. If you have 2 exhaust pips you will have to have them raised up 3".

I think the shifter is connected to the tranny with a cable so I don't believe that it will be an issue.
