Very nice. You could verify that the lumber is (ACQ) treated. Deemed safe for veggie gardens. We need small amounts of heavy metals in our diets anyway.

thats actually still squatting quite a bit... i would have gone with the monroe coil overs. cheaper, and hold up better.

congrats on the eagle scout achievement though!

The ground is deceiving. Got it In a flat parking lot and it was pretty much level

Either way its way better than it use to do

you'll like them. i love mine.

i have a smidgen more clearance between the frame and the timben spring, maybe a 1/2 inch. so i can ride down the road unloaded and normal bumps don't cause the timbrens to hit.

i originally tried the 1 inch solid spacer. this gave me no free space so the truck rode on the timbrens all the time. on the plus side it leveled up my drivers side lean. but on the minus side i thought the ride was a little too firm.
