Man that looks great! How does the TF set-up ride vs stock? Heard both ends of the spectrum.

make sure you install a new roof rack, while it is in the garage rather than out.
that would be an enjoyable thread......

seriously... it looks great

I suggest +2 braided brake lines and front cross member spacers. Your truck looks awesome, those GY tires look cool!

Looks like how it should have came from the factory. Smart choice the Medium duty springs, especial since you're not adding extra weight.

Post your front and rear gained height measurements (wheel arch to center wheel hub) in the thread titled "share your measurements" so other forum members can see your progress.

Don't worry about crossmember spacers or extended brake lines you don't need them if your not flexing constantly off road.

Looks great! Nice choice in rubber. I love those tires. I also have the 275/65/18s and I had to trim in the same place you did.

How much fuel was in the tank when you took the garage door clearance picture?
The additional weight of a full tank of gas could give you the clearance to get in the garage. An empty tank might not give you the clearance.
