That truck above looks kind of low to me for really having 2.5" lift but maybe not.
3" lift with 305/70/16 which are basically 33"X12"

It does look kinda low doesnt it, I compared the bottom of your front fender on the body to the top of the rim... looks close but who could tell 1/2" from a pic... My lift came from 3/4 ton springs and I measured close to 2.5" when I did the install.

Hey's where mine sits now, WITH 33x11.50's on it now.... 285/75,16 I think it needs way more wheel well gap!

Do you think that if I put on some 3/4 ton springs on mine that it would level out the truck a bit? Mine is an off-road sport model and I think those already have a 2" lift from the factory.

it will but your nose will be up, that's how mine was until I went with the 2" blocks in the back. what I'd do is put the 3/4 ton springs in, and measure your gain in height, then put the appropriat size block in the rear.

HI i was wondering if that is a skyjacker lift. Im looking to get a 3 or a 5in lift from skyjacker. I was also wondering if you could take a measurement for me from the bottom of the front rear bumper for me. I just want to get a good idea of the hight difference between stock and a 3in lift. i was just going to jack it up to that hight so i can get a good idea. I was also wondering if you know if a 3in lift will be fine or offroading or if i 5in would be better. Thanks!!!:)

Mine is a Skyjacker but I don't know what the height to the bumper is.
