If you are cutting or "chopping" anything you are doing it wrong. One zip tie on each wheel well to move the wheel well liner up a ball hair. Same thing can be done with a heat gun and a stick. A body mount chop is an entirely different animal and not something I'd recommend doing to a vehicle this nice although that's not that big of a deal either. Look up a NorCal mod. Takes five minutes and gives you a fair amount more room to stuff a bigger tire. 4-6"+ lift kits don't look as good on these trucks as a 2" level with ~35 inch tires. Too much wheel well and you get the golf cart tire look. Although that is what most people on these forums do. It's as simple as a stuffed wheel well looks a lot better than an exposed wheel well. Now tire offset or wheel spacers is something different altogether as that pertains to the pushing of the tire out past the fenders. The guy above also hit on some other solid points although I didn't buy a truck to worry about MPG. Also worth pointing out that putting one of these 4" plus lift kits with "off-road" springs and coils is idiotic unless you spend a bunch of time off-road. You effectively are giving your vehicle an infinitely harsher ride on city & highway roads. Those are much firmer springs and struts than are meant for pavement as they are made to travel less when flexed. If you are trying to keep your ride quality and don't want to sink 10 grand into doing it right with 37's, a 2" level is a no brainer on these vehicles. Just because a bunch of other idiots do something doesn't make it the smart way to do it. Hence why you see so many 60 grand vehicles with garbage super rigid off-road suspensions on here, a foot of wheel well and 35's that look comparatively small on the vehicle. Read my other posts. I'm not trying to make fun of folks, nor do I care about how another grown adult spends their money. I'm simply trying to save folks from making an common mistake. When I first got into off-road vehicles, I always thought bigger was better aesthetically and you got what you paid for. It's a game of inches folks. Also, not everyone is running the baja5000. 6" isn't that much bigger than 2". And when you understand that that 4" goes directly to the wheel wells, or when you understand that off-road shocks are just really rigid shocks that suck on the pavement... It's not rocket science. Learned a long time ago the idea is not to "lift" the vehicle, but rather to "stance" the vehicle. Lots of first timers on this forum IWBH. To each his own.

Except for that guys kit is 1.5" where as your motofab kit is 2". As I said earlier, that 2" motofab front kit with the donuts that go on top of the springs isn't going to look right without something in the rear. I never measured as I only did it for aesthetics but the body lines look nose high with just the 2". If I had to do it over again I would probably have gone with the 2.5" motofab kit with 1.5" rear blocks. That'd be perfect IMO. That said, if you are patient you can get 1" blocks off Amazon, but they are on backorder, hence why I went with the 1.5"s. At the end of the day a ball hair here and a ball hair there makes all the difference. Best of luck, going to look better than the stock stance as long as you put on some kind of rear blocks. For those that are lurking and future reference, you are better off going with a 4" lift if you are paying someone for the install. Better bang for your buck. If you are doing it yourself, 2.5" donuts (going to be a ****** to get in) and 1.5" blocks are the call IMO.

About 5 grand. Have one on my '19 SLT and never use it. Looks cool, but I trailer my boat on the regular and am not going to take my ball & hitch off every use therefore rendering the tailgate rather useless during boating season. Was cool the one time I got plywood and popped it up lol. Also is cool to use it as a step and as a spot to sit but I've done that maybe 20x in the 2+ years I've had it and could have done the same thing with a regular tailgate minus the foot placement. What would be a lot cooler is a tailgate with Auto drop AND Auto Up. Now that is something that I'd pay for. The multipro is the definition of a gimmick. Sure the tailgate itself looks 10x more bad@ss with that section cut out of it aesthetically, but to me, that is the best thing about it. Can think of plenty of better ways to spend my money. Anything over $1,000 is absolutely nuts, and in actuality they are going to set you back north of $3,500-$5,000. That's a joke IMO but not going to worry about how somebody else wants to spend their nickels.

Looks good, now all you need is to add wheel spacers, remove the running boards, delete the mudflaps, tint your windows and delete some of the chrome. Haha, looks good though. Have 275/65R20 Duratracs and am a huge fan of that size tire on these trucks. Really do need wheel spacers though to make em look tough.

Depends how aggressive you want it to look. Less wheel well, aggressive tread tires, tires slightly poked out = aggressive. At this point if I were you I'd put on 35" tires and just do the NorCal Mod. The running boards and non color matched fender flares aren't helping either IWBH.

To each his own.

Just need bigger tires. Put 35's on with that lift and it will look a million times better than any 6" lift. The reason you don't like it now is the same reason people with 6" lifts and 35's look dumb. It's all about proportions. The less wheel well the better. You also don't want your wheels poked out like roller skates to which yours aren't.

Just did mine with a Motofab 2" spacer. Looks pretty nose high. Didn't measure as I only did it for aesthetics but the body lines on these trucks are funny. Seems like it is hard to get them where they look level from the front, rear and side. Ordered 1" blocks for the rear, which will give it a little rake but doesn't look like I want with just the 2" spacer. If I had to do it over I'd go with a 2.5" spacer in the front and a 1 or 1.5" in the rear. If you just want to do the front, I think a 1.5" is the call. I upgraded my tires as well to 275/65/r20 Duratracs and I will say that the spacer lift and some agressive tires does change the overall stance and aesthetic of the truck drastically, for the better. Probably gonna put on some 1.5" wheel spacers next to really make it look subtly aggressive.

Have an X31. Fine for going down fire/logging roads. Beyond that it's a half ton truck. Bad entry and departure angles. If you try to take it on "Jeep" trails you're going to pinstripe it to hell. The valence is like 10" off the ground. I mean, the list goes on. Have done plenty of "medium" off-road trails in mine, tore the mudflaps to $hit, bent my exhaust tips and put a massive dent in the crossbeam of my frame and I would consider myself fortunate that that is all that happened lol. Again, it's a 40-60k dollar half ton truck. If you want to do serious off-roading buy a secondary vehicle. But it is obviously as capable as any other 4WD truck. If you know the roads in which you are going prior, you'll be fine. If you are trying to keep up with your Jeep buddies on skinny trails you're going to hate your truck. Just is a physically wider vehicle with a wider turning radius. Is what it is.

Looks good. If I had a black truck, I'd black the whole thing out. Bumpers, badges, mirror caps, etc. It's not hard to do it yourself and doesn't take very long to do. Buy a cheap heat gun and cartridge knife from Walmart and watch a couple Youtube Videos. Most of the time is spent disassembling whatever you're trying to wrap. It's one of those things you don't wanna do wrong or it will look like you have a ricer though. But Avery or 3M vinyl is cheap, very cheap and if you screw it up you can just take redo it. Not into tinting windows myself, but vinyl is a no brainer.

Truth be told they don't look terrible but people put eyelids on larger headlights. They don't really go. About the only thing you could do to those headlights is put some halos in them.

Run 275/65/R20 Goodyear Duratracs with 2" level on mine. 34.5" tire that is essentially the most aggressive All-Terrain tire they make A.K.A. the best looking non-mud tire money can buy. Looks considerably more aggressive than Toyo Open Country, K02's, etc. Uber popular tire on other off-road platforms. Lost about .5-1 mpg over the stock 275/60/R20 Wrangler AT Worth every penny in gas mileage that I lose. Truck looks so much better that I would have gladly done it over again even if I was losing 5x the mileage. If you are worried about gas mileage, you shouldn't be driving a truck. You could lift your truck 8-10" and throw on 37's and I'm sure you would still be getting 10-12 MPG although you would do much better with a deisel.

Gonna unload this overpriced piece of machinery and find the next best deal, Sierra or not.

So what you are telling me is that my fully loaded 4WD SLT that I paid 42,500 for TTT OTD for a few months prior to the rona, is going to be worth 60,000 in a few years at this rate? Great, I'll drive the hell out of it, put another 50k miles and unload it on some poor, unsuspecting soul before it hits 100k miles, for top dollar. Best investment ever. Printing money with this thing at this rate.
