Did you order new bumpers to have paint matched or did you paint the original chrome bumpers? I've been kicking around the idea of paint matching my bumpers and grill also.

I bought new bumpers, mine is a 2500 Tradesman so steel bumpers. Found them online for $200 each shipped. The expensive part was the grill, I think I found that for around $300

Did you have the bumpers painted or powder coated to match?

I’ve got just the basic bright white, and I’m kicking around paint or powder coat. I’ve seen some powder coated ones that wasn’t even close in color

I have crystal granite metallic which was extremely difficult to match with paint, no way I could ever get powder to match.

And also. How has that lift been so far? Any complaints? Looking to do a lift similar but don’t want to get overalls carried away and make towing or even driving go backwards

Lift has been great. No modification to the stock parts (no cutting or welding). With Fox 2.0 and the lift the ride is better than factory. I tow 13,000 pound trailer, boat and camper no problems at all.
The nitto ridge grap have a higher load capacity than stock so no loss in capacity.
Lift was easy to install, took me around 4 hours in my driveway.

I’m seriously considering the kit, idk if I want to keep the stock 275/70/18 size or go to a 35x12.5x18 on my stock tradesman rims

Top pic is at the dealer the day I bought it. Second pic is all stock with 3” lift.

Same Spacer lift with AEV Salta and 37x12.5 General Grabber X3, but with the Snorkel and the White Knuckle Sliders. Sliders make it seem a bit shorter.

i have been looking around this site and have done multiple searches for a specific wheel, tire and suspension set up but haven’t been able to find what I’m looking for. I currently have my 2500 at stockheight but just bought Moto Metal 962 18x10 with -24 offset I’m running 295/70 18s and I am wondering if I will need a level kit or no? I do t necessarily want one but I am thinking I might need one because of the width and offset.

Can anyone confirm? Thanks!

That is a Beast! Looks great! Not over done but enough to punch you in the face and make you go "THAT ain't stock!).

I'm working toward that look with a white Tradesman CC LB 6.4 4x4 4.10's(soon to be 5.13's). You just convinced me I gotta go with 37" tires. My 33's are almost 34. That ain't far from 35. Gotta go 37.
