RE: more body lift pics of my truck
yes i did it myself. i work on cars for a living, so i was able to do it at my shop with a lift and all my tools. still took me about 5 hours. there is some cutting required for the bumper brackets and you have to cut the lower radiator support off and extend it using new brackets from the kit, so i took my time and measured everything multiple times to make sure it was right.

I wonder if I can get it to work with a stick, by notching the floor pan, or extending the shifter like in the last gen PA kits. If I had an auto, I would have ordered the kit by now. I'm sure it can be done with the manual, but I dont want to get stuck.
I heard I could weld in a piece of a bolt that was the same diameter and the stick shift down at its base to extend the shifter. I dont know this 100% though because no one has done it on the 05-07 models..

i haven't looked at a manual 05 before, but i'm sure it can be done. i'm sure it would require notching the floor like you said, but i cant see it being a lot. and if you can take your shifter out, you could take it to a welder or machinest for a idea to extend it. i would try it if i had a stick, but don't hold me liable

That truck looks F-ing awesome. I bought the same truck but the Raider version. I have the body lift and leveling kit ready to install but I need to wait till I get to PA to go to my dads shop to use the lift :-) . So any rub from the tires? Is that 2wd

yes its 2wd. and yes there was tire rub. i had to trim the inner fender and a few other places but nothing major or noticable.
the truck doesn't handle bad at all. not much different than stock. i do despratly need a 4.10 gear out back though. i have a 3.7 with 3.55 gear and it's a dog with the tires. a 4.7 might not be so bad with stock gear
