bilsteins and heavy duty springs plus 1.5" rear spacer.

[Nce]

installed bilsteins up front today. Set them @ 2.8" and the truck sits pretty much level at all 4 corners. I am putting on heavy duty springs and a 1.5" spacer on the back tomorrow. I ordered 1.25" bora spacers and they are being manufactured this week. Once they arrive i'll have some 35" m\t's mounted on the stock rims.

The stock shocks were a pain to remove from the coils with a regular spring compressor and without an impact wrench. I went to my local body shop and they let me use the wall mounted spring compressor and an impact wrench at no charge. Took all of 5 minutes to do with better tools.

Here's a pic of how it sits now.

Beautiful man... looks like my truck...but urs is a crew cab... it looks great with it almost level. I hated the rake I had on mine. So I got the same bilstein set the exact same height as yours.

I got to put a few miles on the truck last night. No wobbles, squeaks or shudders in either 2wd or 4wd. Brake dive seems to be greatly reduced.

I like those steps. I wish they made them for Crew Cab 6.5' Beds.

And in black. Would love the full length.

Rear is done. Really like how the truck sits. Took a little more than an hour.

I like how it sits too. Kind of cool how it sticks to the ceiling.

That'll teach me to attempt posting from a cell phone.

Looks great. Cant wait to see it with the 35's

Just got an email letting me know that the spacers should be anodized and shipped today. I hope 1.25" is enough to accommodate 35's with stock rims.

Should be good. Everything that I have read says you just need 1/4".

Looks great! Too bad you don't live in Maine. You could've done mine too
