Default Installed my 4 inch lift kit

Well finally got around to installing my RCX kit, after running fire/ems calls all night I came home in the morning to settle in for a solo install (get a helper if your gonna do this, mine was out of town), Had a few issues but took my time on the whole job and well finished at 3 in the morning, helping hints would be to Jack the truck up above the lift height to make installing the wheels easier, when its 11 at night and you have to jack each side to get there and your tired sucks, second would be to cut the DS crossmember bracket before removing the pumpkin, third would be to use a 22mm socket on the 21mm nuts on the rear upper shocks (the mount design does not allow the 21 to fit it, fourth get plenty of red bull for the job, and finally enough pain killers for the aches and pains for the next few days, and I want to thank spdbird for all the manual info he sent me.

yikes lol! I actually am waiting for my stockers to bald out then putting some Nitto's on the truck! I think I'm ditching the 20" rims as well and throwing on some 17's or 18's and selling the 20's, tires are to much for a 20" rim, plus I like more sidewall anyway. Your truck is still looking good, and love the color haha!

I see you live in C.C. FL? My parents live in Pines, I grew up in Pines, then joined the military and live in UGH JOISEY now. lol
