First off, a Super Big Thank You to Kenny... for his time, lift, and patience....

what was supposed to be a "bolt on" lift turned out to be a "fab to fit" lift :annoyed:

but, we got it done......

to this point was really smooth....it was the arms that were supposed to be for a 4WD that turned out to be for a 2WD that the real fun began....

the extended beam with the factory beam end added to it.....

well, i went everywhere with my coil spacers all the other guys were goin....

just really wanted more articulation...not much lift....is only 3" coils, drop brackets, and my spacers ( and the spacers just really make up for my winch/bumper combo )

can't wait to try it out....hopefully this weekend....

looks good. are you going to throw on diffrent wheels?
 
Its about time you get it on:thefinger:I remember when mine started looking like that...It was after my body lift, 2 days later I had the 6" lift on...Keeps getting higher and higher...Looks like your front axle needs to go further forward though, and you can finally get those 5 star rims on now...

It looks like the front wheel is setting back in the wheel well a little? Looks good though.

hard to tell in the pic, but the tires are ever so slightly turned to the right to go up the side of my house...
