Default leveling kit done and some pics

Got my leveling kit put on- 1.5' Daystar spacer. It actually makes the truck sit slightly lower in the back. It looks lower in the pics because the stock wheels and tires are in the back. What would be the best way to raise it up a little in the rear? Extra spring, block, or ? I picked up some a set of used 33-12.50-15's on 15x10 wheels for a good price so got them on there for now. I have another set of wheels I was going to use but found the other set. I like the black more than I thought I would though. What do you guys think? By the way- for anyone wondering if Wild Country RVT tires are loud- they are VERY loud. I can hardly hear the exhaust over them. When I've got enough $ for new tires, these will be up for sale!





These are the other wheels I bought. They're 15x8.

I like the black wheels.
Fix your fender.
You can throw a 4WD factory spacer block under the spring back there, but you may have the rake again.

Yeah she needs a little bit of work on the outside. I haven't had the truck that long- I've got everything mechanically done so now I'm starting to try and make her look better. I go between working on the truck and a 95 Trans Am I picked up that I'm almost done with. It'll be nice to drive a stick shift again

Yes unfortunately it's 2wd. Honestly it's probably better because I won't have it out in the woods beating on it breaking parts lol
