Took way longer than it should have, actual work time, about 2 hours. Figuring out how to bleed the radiator, 3 hours. Its not in the damn Owners manual. Truck kept overheating until we finally figured it out. No problems with the body lift at all, easiest one i've ever done.

Just one other question. What gears are you running in the rear diff? Any plans to upgrade that?

beause they are 31x12.50 on 15x10 wheels. they stick out of the fender 6" so when you turn the tire swings right in to it.

That all actually leads me to another question. Kyle, what did you use to trim? A dremel tool or what? Looks like you made nice clean cuts.

Did you just eyeball the cuts, turning the wheels?

Cranked on the wheels. Taped off where i was cutting, used that as my line. Compensated for full compression (around 6" of verticle travel).
