justin said it is close to a 3" lift and i figured it was on orig springs and 2 of the shocks were orig. at 120k! thye had to be sagging at least 1/2" if not 1" so im thinking its around 4" higher now. will find out when i measure tonight but yeah its freaking high now. cant wait to put rubber under it.

 

Looks great! How's the ride? Or have you gotten to drive it yet?

 

drive is a lot smoother than it was. im not going to lie it is stiff but not nearly as bad as my worn out springs and shocks were. the steering damper reacts nicely as well. overall im very pleased. will see how it does with new rubber and off road in Nov.

 

MEASUREMENTS
before - after
Driver side Front - 32.25" - 34.5"
Driver side Rear - 32.5" - 34.75"
Pass side Front - 32.5" - 34.75"
Pass side Rear - 32.25" - 34.5"

looks like 2.25 inches all around. not as much as i was dreaming but happy as can be.

 

Dunlop Rover M/T MAXX 245/75/16 - $150 ea. Great tire for on and off.

 

yeah i saw those tires. im looking for something a little bigger as far as size goes. there are kuhmo ventures 265/75 for $73 at sears... but they are backordered right now.

 

The lift looks great. What tire size are you going with after all? My ride is SO much better, when I pulled my shocks out they had no rebound at all--totally shot.

 

i think the 265/75 but maybe 285/70 not sure yet...

 

Go for the 285's Ed.......dont be like me an buy a set and 2 weeks later kick myself in the a@@ for not getting what I wanted the first time.........you can always use drop bumpstops if they rub!

 

i like your thinking Brian.. not sure its logical but i like it. haha
