finally done with the outside of this thing.. got the blocks off the back, lowered the torsion bars a bit... sits a quarter inch higher in the back than the front- and I don't think most could tell by looking at it..

does it look right in 'yalls opinion w/o the rake?

 

Just a matter of taste... but, I think if it were mine, I would drop the front another inch. (and then get an alignment. )

 

I like the NEW look, but if you decide to put anything over 100lbs in the bed, the nose is gonna assume an upright position, and the back is gonna settle.

 

I'll hafta see how that works out.. it'll be sooner than later, as I have to haul some stuff this weekend.. The rear leaves are skyjacker easy rides +3".. they are 'sposed to increase my payload considerably, by adding (i think it was) 600lbs capacity.. they have a much sharper ramp on the progression, and aren't 'sposed to move a whole lot after the first few inches of travel, but give a ride similar to un-loaded while they are loaded down..

I'm curious to see if they live up to the hype.

 

shes sittin' PERTY now

 

that looks pretty sweet. the only thing and it is minor and probably not worth doing anything about and others will probably disagree but I think the nerf bars should return after the rear door. probably real practical to have them like they are now to access the truck box and all especially with the new lift but, just thinking out loud.....
