Well done sir, fueling the 37’s envy!
I was worried about doing 37s but so glad I did. 35s I think would look small in there with the Bils adjusted up

I think you’re spot on, 35’s look just about perfect IMO on my rig and I’m only running a 4/3 lift with Bils @0.7.....

And I swear I could fit some 37’s with a few tweaks and adjustments!

Truck looks awesome :headbang:

One thing I noticed is they put the panhard bar in the wrong hole at the bracket. They have it in the hole meant for the 3" coils. Since you have the 5" coils it goes into the top hole which will make it more parallel to the rear axle. You can look at the online instructions to verify.

Found this a little odd the BDS instructions do tell you to put it in the top hole but the Zone instructions don't specify and tell you to put it in the bottom hole. Kinda weird. I did move it to the top though.

That looks sick!! I have the same exact lift waiting in my garage to be put on. I'm so torn between 35 or 37 tires. My other truck has 38" mud tires and my dad has a set of 35" all terrains so was hoping to have lift on before he sells them so I can throw them on just to see how they look. Might put my other truck up on blocks so I can take the 38s off too to see how it drives with that lol. Just worried cause I also have the 3.21 gears, really wishing I would have got the 3.92s now lol. Waiting on my buddy to get his lift installed in his shop and in the meantime I'm doin the audio system lol

Nice!! If your doing the bills up front I would go 37 but that's me. It does downshift a little bit more now on Hills but I've been keeping an eye on trans Temps and I still have yet to get it over 185 190. Once my wife gets her new car in June my truck will only be used probably on the weekends so I'm not too worried about it being an everyday driver

Sadly, Mailgator's truck is wrecked. If it helps you, I am running Zone 6" with Zone UCAs. I run Fox 2.0s in the back. 37s on 20x10 -24. I am in the process of cranking my 6112s up from 2.4 to 2.6 and swapping out the 3" rear coils for 5", and staying with the Fox 2.0's.

Thanks man, it was just me. It was low speed, dark and foggy and I was making a turn and didn't realize I was on the shoulder and it had a steep ditch that the front wheels started to slide into next thing I knew it was going over. Damage didn't seem to bad but the body shop said the roof and floor buckled as well as the frame got twisted. I think the frame damage was done by the reject that pulled me out of the ditch. Probably would've been better off having a buddy flip me back over and pull me out.
