So i put my RC 2" level kit and Toyo 295/55/20's on this weekend. Install was simple, just like on my 2011. It definitely helps to have an extra set of hands when wedging that spacer in there. 295/

Thanks. Here is one more from yesterday. Considering we're getting 8-10 inches of rain the next two days, I won't be taking any better pics soon.

I own FastHeadlights LLC and we do work on headlights all the time. I just took the orange out and replaced with some switchback turn signals :)

 

 

Can we get some more pics of the front of your truck?

What did you tint your tail lights with? how many coats? Any chance you take a pic with the tail lights on and not the breaks? I am ready tint mine. I have a white truck and dont want them super dark and would like to keep the tail and brake lights as bright as possible but just take the red out when they are off if that makes sense.

Finally got all the mods on (for now). I did the rough country 3.75 inch combo kit (2.5 inch leveling kit with the 1.25 inch body lift). Also went with Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ 275/65/20 on the stock rims. Absolutely love how it turned out.

Added the. 5" wheel spacers. Bumped them out just enough to make me happy.

 

What .5" spacers did you use? I need roughly this amount to satisfy me, but I've been unable to find bolton spacers in the .5" size and I was under the impression a .5" slide-on spacer wouldn't leave enough threads on the studs???

Looks great man one of the best yet....how hard was the body lift install

Here is a picture of the tire the only one that was not too big I guess. Dumb. 295 70r18 factory rims.

 

 

Looks good, and it looks as if there is a good deal of room. Congrats. Truck looks awesome. That will be the tire and size that I will go with. Had those exact same tires on my last two Fords and there were no issues at all. Looks like they will be going on my Chevy now. Thanks for the pics.

Can you give some front and rear pics, some showing how the truck looks with those 275s on. Kinda curious how wide they look with the truck on a 3.75 combo and 34s

I just got some cheap ones on eBay from wheelcity. I also bought some et style lugs. I wasn't real happy with how many rotations I got on the lugs.

I like your lights! Where did you get them, or what did you have done. Sweet truck!

 

This man also did the work on my headlights, I can definitely vouch for his work. :thumbs:

 

I also ran across something yesterday you guys might find interesting. I saw someone run 35's on a single 2" leveling kit with almost 0 rubbing issues so he claims. Anyone else try this setup? (forgive me if this is old news, haven't had time to browse the forum lately)

That's what I'm saying lol, if he really doesn't rub with no trimming like he claims I'll be all over some 35's for my pickup.

Whenever my tires run out ( about 1/2 life) I'm going to try 305/70/18's (34.8"x12") on a 2.5 level and 1.5 body lift. It'll be a bit still, but i'm going to try it at least. Hopefully someone will have the answer by then, but that's my intent. 295/70/18's as a backup.

      TCM Tuning 6L80E

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
