Default just washed (pic heavy)

some of these pics are from the ride home yesterday. if you've been keeping up with my truck you already saw half of these. the rest are from today after a good wipe-down. since everyone else posts pics after a wash i figured i would too, why not... everyone loves pics!

quick one at stock height about a week or so ago:


in the shop, almost done:


gettin' her back home:








today after a good washing:

Thats exactly how I want my truck to look. NICE!!! What kind of lift did you use, because I have the 2008 4.7L 2wd, and its hard to find the right lift. Also how does she ride, motor wise? Is it sluggish? Again, Nice TrucK!

i ended up using the 7" CST kit with 1" spacers up front and a 3" PA body lift (11" total) but it could honestly use another 1" in the front, or slightly shorter tires. there's some mild rubbing that i'll be fixing very soon. as far as power it's great on flat land and of course downhill. uphill is a bit of a chore, but that's because i have the stock 3.55s in still. monday morning she's getting 4.88s i can give you a better review on power then, but i'm positive it'll be way better than stock at that point. mathematically, it should be the equivalent of having 4.10s on a stock truck

And to think at one point you were having second thoughts! Again the truck looks great.
How high off the ground is the bottom of the front doors? You getting some fog lights?
Out of curiousity how much $$$ did everything set you back? I understand if you dont want to answer the money question.
