Full Lock Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 picture? https://www.dropbox.com/s/2os8oqx01bivijo/2014-03-26%2007.46.46.jpg After measuring its exactly 37" in the front and 38" in the back. It still looks uneven but on flat surface it looks great. Lowers it enough my wife and kids enjoy it also.

smpldezine Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Im going with the 2.25" readylift up front and nothing in the back. I have 275/65/r20 toyo at ii tires to go on. I am really hoping they will fit with no rubbing. I dont want to trim anything. It hard to get comparisons from here because lots of guys are using the rough country lift. Anyone else go the readylift route? I think they are a better made product. Are the tires on yet? I am on the fence between the 275/65/20 and 295/60/20 .. same height but a little wider with the 295s. TIA
PMD G8 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) here is my truck without rear blocks. So you did a front level? If so, what kit did you use? Edited April 4, 2014 by PMD G8

I am on the fence between the 275/65/20 and 295/60/20 .. same height but a little wider with the 295s. TIA Update...I ended up going with the 275/60/20 tires. I am fortunate that i buy alot of big truck tires and so my tires shop originally put on the 275/65/20's and they rubbed with the readylift 2.25" kit. I did not want to modify wheel wells or fenders and if it rubs now, any kind of off road situation will rub worse. So we took off the 65's and went with the 60's. No rub. I am very happy with the looks and the outcome. I choose not to do any different blocks in the back until i hook up my new trailer and see how much it sags this max tow pacakge. If it lowers the rear too much i think that i will go the firestone air bag route. 1
Isriam Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 So you did a front level? If so, what kit did you use? no i only pulled rear blocks. everything else is stock.

Can you post some pictures of your setup with the 275/60/20s? TIA
Shier32 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I'm about to put a 2" leveling kit on the front. How many mgp should I expect to lose?
Rs0802 Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Daystar 2" level. Michelin 275/60r20 AT2. 39.5" in front and 40" in rear to wheel well. The dealer installed the kit. The guy who installed it recommended this size tire to avoid rubbing in all situations. I've had no issues in 400 miles. 1
smpldezine Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Looks great RS0802 .. Seems like you can even get away with a 1.5" level and still be safe. Great looking setup!!
Full Lock Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Hows the ride with that Daystar lift? Looks like they only make a 2" front and a 2" front & rear kit Good looking setup either way
Nemo39 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Did you guys have to adjust your lights with the RC lift?
MR. DRAG SLEDDER Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Did you guys have to adjust your lights with the RC lift? I had to. With installing any kit I believe you will have too.
tanner709 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Yep had to adjust the lights on my sierra, got a lot of high beam flashes in the dark... It was blinding drivers in front of me as well, even truck drivers.
Btreyu09 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Weird. A few people were saying after a leveling kit their headlights were perfect.
