I just wanted to get the fender off the tires. Didn't realize it would lift so much.

Hmmm........Wheels turning....... might have to do that to mine. I hate the idea of blocks in the back and not real fond of longer shackles either. How does it ride or have you drove it yet?

 

[country0001]

Honestly....... its a lil rough. I can stand on the bumper and it wont move. On the highway it was smooth. When I get my lift kit. It'll get new shocks

B2 is mobile again, runnin the new driveshaft I built. Can't wait to get the Rough Country lift and D35 installed.

Taking donations to expedite this process..........

Took 2 leaves out, sits and rides better, still waiting on money for lift.

Gotta buy school supplies and stuff.

Awseome, subscribed. Which lift did you order, the basic $500ish one? Thats kind of what I was looking at, but I figure I've got to at least get that puny D 28 out, or have a D35 on hand. But I cant have better parts laying around without putting them in, haha. Good luck putting it on, make sure to take plenty of pics.

I ordered the 4" lift with blocks, I don't need the blocks, but got them anyways. It was 512 shipped.

I'll be doing my tcase swap and D35 swap all at the same time.

I'll take some pics as I go along. Its just time for the upgrade.

 

[country0001]

Kit came in today. Truck is jacked up, and the t case comes out tomorrow. Maybe the front end too

1354M installed last night. I guess the 1350M shifter is different from the 1354 shifter.
I'll figure that out later, pullin D 28 out tonight, and maybe getting D35 back in, weather is moving in. Praying for decent temps to work in tonight.

 

[country0001]

Lift in, gotta take it in to get aligned this week.

What brake lines has every one used with a 4" lift?

I'll research that later today.
