Thanks for all the info.
And weed when I said "drop kit" I meant cross member drop kit. Not lowering kit haha. If thats what I thought I meant...

Anyway I kinda figured that about the long arm kits. And correct me if I'm wrong I think that pic is the top gun kit which looks badassss.

So far my truck rides pretty damm good for a sfa so idk what to do. Long just look great. But they're just so permanent lol I'm thinking it'll be horrible to sell a lifted gas mega cab in the future.

Not that that's my main objective with this truck but I wanna keep it in mind

To be completely honest, I do not know off hand. But it is not the Top Guns long arm kit, nor the Rize kit.

Actually, I take that back. It IS a Top Gun Customz product... their new extended long arms. I dont see it in their "kits", but I found it in their photo's. It started out as a Rize kit, but they added their control arms.

Heres another pic of the truck... pulling my car home for me... in front of my garage

Yeah that looks like that's the kit. But where's the upgrade or option for the boxed arms. They look sick

Im not completely sure. Im thinking they are so "new" that they dont have them up for sale yet? I dont see them at all on their website (except the pictures of that truck).

Right. Oe I'm running 35s. With about 5 inches of lift. I think id be fine with 37s or 38s. All depend what looks right.
I have 3 other sets in my garage waiting. I have two sets of 37s and a set of 36s. So I'll swap around and see what I like.
Ive seen way higher trucks with smaller than 35s. All depends on what look you want I guess. I domt wanna tower over dwarfed tires. But I do wanna have space between the wheel wells and the tires.
