Dodgenitto or rubberfrog did you guys install your body lift your self do you have to take out the tow hooks completely or just not use them? How long did it take?
Dodgenitto: Either I am missing something or my eyes are deceitful. You say you've got a 3'' leveling kit up front, 3'' add a leaf in the rear and all around 3'' b/l. Now wouldn't that just be a total of 6'' in front and 6'' in rear? Because your pics make it look level. Despite the answer your truck is still bad ***.

You can't use tow hooks with the bl. Unless you custom fab the mounts.
It took me and a buddy ALL DAY to install the lift. And I'm talking a summer day, not winter. lol

Yes, the rear was higher for a while! After hauling a lot of stuff around the add-a-leaf loosened up and settled quite a bit! If I measure from a flat surface my front fender flare is 45 1/4" off the ground and my rear is 47" off the ground.
i love that look with the level and 3" body lift and i am going to do it as well as the bigger tires can you fit 37" with that or can you only go 35's
With just a 3" body lift I doubt you can stuff 37's! if you get a 3" leveling kit and are willing to cut some metal out of your front wheel well you can get it to work! You will have to cut out some between the door and the tire! Big fender flares help hide it!
