I know I have shown you pics of the truck after it was lifted, but to give you guys a more realistic idea of the lift to expect, I have taken side by side pics with a 07 4x4 that has the standard 16" wheels and 245/70 tire package, next to my 06 with a 2" lift, which consists of a $85 leveling kit from trailmaster for the front, and a $25 block kit in the rear. My truck also sits on larger 265/75-r16 tires. This was done at a dealership and the lot was pretty full so I couldnt get farther back to snap my shots. The farther back you go though, the larger the lift seems to be. This is a $110 dollar lift job.

defintely seems like a dramatic difference, especially in the front.

 

Nice comparaison!

 

how big is the rear block?

 

the rear is also 2". For some reason, the picture makes it look the same, but its a bigger difference then the front is compared to stock. Cant tell ya why it doesnt show in the pic, maybe there was a dip in the black top or somthing.

 

I am getting a Leveling kit for my 06 Dakota, and the people at all of the shops i have called seem to think ill be able to fit 285/75/17 on it. I do want a 1 or 2" block kit for the back and cannot find one, just so that if i am towing it doesnt look goofy. What do you guys think?

 

I beleive the TRX4 is like an inch higher? Look's like it anyway.

 

all block kits are usually created equal. Mine is a universal round u-bolt kit with 2" aluminum blocks. Fit like it was made for the truck specifically, got it at autozone. There all pretty much the same. It was good steel, the U bolts, and hardware. Fit like a glove. $25. They had 1-4" blocks there.

You might be able to fit 285/75-r16. When I look at mine, I think that I could but I cant tell if it would rub up front on a full turn. I had 32" on without a lift and it fit fine with no rub. I then added the lift. Try it out.

 

You wouldn't happen to have the brand and manufacturer for those rear blocks do you?
