Default Lifted, Leveled, Tires Are Done, FINALLY!! pics inside

So I started this project like 3 months ago and I'm finally done, for now at least. Here's the list of updates.

PA 3" Body lift with Gap Guards
Air Lift Air Bags
Blacked out Headlights
Advanced Automotive Halos
Mickey Thompson Classic Lock Wheels
with MT Baja Claw Tires 33"
And various other little things

Future mods:
SRT Hood
Recon Cab Lights
35" Wheels
Intake and Magnaflow exhaust (The flowmaster is wearing out)


Below is the timeline since I bought it.

When Purchased:


After a Week:


After a Month:




The next 3 months

Body Lift in Progress





Blacked out Headlights and Halos





Body Lift Complete, Leveled, with Incomplete MT's









Finished with Chrome Rings on MT's and Air bags




Air Bags at 75% full with 2000lbs in bed. (Still pretty level I think)

Truck looks awesome! I'm glad you put those lights behind the grill, they looked pretty dorkster mounted up on the bumper...lol
I always laugh when I put my vehicles back to stock after getting them all dressed up the way I like while driving them. It's just hard to imagine that you used to once have a bone stocker grandpa lookin truck..hehehe

Looks very good.
Careful with that 2000 lb in the bed. I think that's slightly over the published payload. Not that it's never happened before...

I like the look also. Are you going to loose the gap guards and get full rear wheel liners? Did you have any issues installing the AAC halos or getting the epoxy to stick?

Looks good, where did you plumb the fill lines to for the bags? Been looking at that next, but debating that point.
