Rough Country Lift...anybody got it?
only thing with brakes was to straighten out the metal lines to adjust for new brackets. while your dealer is correct, in theory, he is wrong. Yes the larger tires have a larger mass and rolling resistance, but its not much different than adding weight. To get larger brakes you would need larger rotors, and also larger rims. i am running 17 inch rims and have no problem stopping.
a POSSIBLE upgrade may just be better brakes than stock.
the only way that i can see to recalibrate the speedometer is to either get a speedometer re calibrator ($300) or a tuner ($350), OR to replace your gears to compensate

i am still unsure if the lifted truck should be aligned to factory specs or not. he doesn't seem to think so, so the alignment is at:
camber 1.0° left 0.1° right
caster 3.3° left 4.6° right
toe 0.21° left 0.16° right
cross camber 0.9°
cross caster -1.3°
total toe 0.38°
camber 1.0° left 0.1° right
caster 3.3° left 4.6° right
toe 0.21° left 0.16° right
cross camber 0.9°
cross caster -1.3°
total toe 0.38°
Lifted trucks should be aligned to the stock specs.
Tell your technician that and have him re-set it to factory specs.
Let me know how it goes...
