I ordered it from 4wheelonline.com and they are not the greatest about tracking info when you place orders over the phone. But they were the cheapest on quite a few things that I needed.

So hopefully in the next day or two I will see the lift.

**** the N-fabs I ordered from the same place and they had to be delivered on a 28' tractor-trailer today due to the size package. I thought I would be a week or better on that deal.

They definatly cought my eye too, they were my first choice by looks alone for sure.


I do have to say that they are about 6 inches to long though. When perfectly aligned in the front so as not to interfear with the front tire they come out about 4 inches under the bed. Which means I get to take them back off tomorrow or the next day to install my lift!

Yeah I thought about that but you have to jack the cab up more than just 3", you have to make room to slide the spacers in and the bars will scratch the bed for sure. Its not realy a big deal just 12 bolt to pull out, nothing compared to doing the actual lift.

you doin tires at the same time? I think a lift with those 33's might look a little goofy

I am going to see how it looks first, but I have had my eye on some Mickey Thompsons. The bad thing is that I would also need diffrent rims to go with the 35's. What do I do with the ones I just bought 2000 miles ago. LOL. So we shall see.

I got it done for $450 after a $75 cupon that the place hooked me up with when I called for a price quote.


I went over the rail because I already had scratches on top of the rails and knew they would only get worse. I did it the same on my last couple trucks.

Post up some pictures after you get the lift. I'm always curious of how these trucks are with lifts and 33s. Some look nice, others not so much.
Why do you have to get rid of your rims? And if you have to get new rims, what size are the old ones, and how much would you want for them?
