Leveled, New Wheels & Tires
Finally got my Bilsteins installed, front & rear. 2" level in front. Ended up going with 18x9 XD Cranks. Originally wanted Fuel Hostages, but the offset I wanted is on backorder. Wheels are 0 offset and wrapped in LT295/70/18 Terra Grapplers. Love the look and the ride quality, feels like a totally different truck now. I also painted my diff cover to match the truck and used zinc plated bolts to make it pop. Just wanted to show off the fruits of my labor a little bit. More pictures available in my album if anyone wants to check them out.

x2 surprised you didn't need to run a smaller spacer. Maybe if you would have chosen some MT's with much bigger lugs it would have needed em.
Never the less, looks good. I think that really made my decision on if im going to go with a 33 or 35 being leveled. Nitto ranges that tire right in as a 34 so I think im def going with the 35's.
Now get under there and clean up that whole rear axle .

Thanks man! That was the easiest part of the whole thing.

Should match up pretty good. I got the paint from Autozone, engine block paint I think, the color was Old Ford Blue or something like that. Not an exact match, but it's pretty damn close.

Backspace is 5"...still plenty of room for these 295's. Probably could have fit 305's, but I didn't want to go that wide.

I know, I know. Not enough hours in the day though when you have two little ones to chase around. I'd like to take a wire wheel to the whole thing and paint it black, that would really make the blue diff cover stand out.

Yeah I def know what you mean. Id love to remove the whole thing, wire wheel and do some eastwood chassis black/something similar to every vehicles underside. But unless you just have time to put one in the garage, tear it apart, and drive something else until its finished; it usually just stays as one of those things on the to do list.
