They relocated the suspension down by using brackets. Seems easy enough.

I want one.

So all you get with that kit is:

- 4 relocation brackets
- 2 longer rear springs
- 4 longer shocks
- And the mounting hardwear

After seeing that makes me wish I got 37's instead of 35's. Oh well we'll see how it looks next week!

Odd assortment of parts on that truck. 5th Wheel/gooseneck tailgate with a tonneau cover?

Nothing too suprising about the lift though. Standard IFS lift, doesn't do anything for ground clearance, but most people lifting full sized trucks are just doing it for looks anyway.

How does lifting a truck do nothing for ground clearance? Add 2.5" of height for the tires (37-32=5, 5/2=2.5) and then add 4" from the lift and that is 6.5" taller.

Did you mean IFS lifts do nothing for suspension travel, which is what off-roaders really need?

If you think about it the people with a sfa get less ground clearance than ifs; the ifs has a higher center than the sfa.
