Thanks!! Really simple, I went to Home Depot and bought an Aluminum L shaped 8ft piece and used that as my mounting brackets, the just installed the lights to the aluminum and then wired the lights to a separate toggle in the cab and done!! I'll make a video and upload to YouTube

Finally got my level and wheels and tires! Couldn't be happier with the results.

Motofab 2.5" front and 1" rear

17x9 -12 offset with 295/70R17 General Grabber x3's

All I did for trimming was cut out a little piece of the rear of the front wheel wells. If done clean enough, you'd never really even know if was done. No rubbing of any kind

I have a 2" RC Level if anyone wants it. Will sell it cheap. Was going to put it on my 2016 Silverado but traded it in last week.

Thanks man! I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. After doing a little bit of hauling after the level and wheels and tires, I will say I kinda wish I would have left a little more rake. Maybe up 2" in the rear instead of just 1. It doesn't take a whole lot of weight in the box or tounge weight and she starts squatting a little bit. My buddy put bags and compressor with a wireless controller on his 2017 and it's a slick set up. Might do the same.

Yea the bags are definitely the way to go from what I've read. I have 1.5" of rake and have Hellwig helper springs. It's the cheaper option but I'm very happy with them.

Beautiful truck and setup. I have a fairly similar setup

 

you said -12 on 17x9? Looks a little less than that to me. I almost think mine pokes a little more and im 17x9 +6 with 285's. I guess the 0.5" makes the difference. I'll post a pic

At the risk of sounding like a broken record there are lot of good looking trucks in this thread. ??

How much did the top setting net you?

Love the look, sharp truck!! I almost went with those tires in the same size but decided for the nittos instead? How do you like them?

Just added a 2" RC level and some new kicks. 20x9 fuel beasts on 305/50/20 nitro trail graps. Love how it came out.

~2" lift. I think I'm going to do the 1" rear lift as well, any weight and she tends to look like a pig with her nose up

You can tell my rear tires stick out a bit more then yours and as far as the fronts go, the taller the leveling kit, the tighter the wheels get pulled to the center of the truck because of the suspension geometry. This is why my front and rear poke is almost identical vs a truck with a true lift kit. With those the front wheels always poke out a bit more then the rear.

Thanks!! So far I love them. I have less then 1000 miles on them so I think it's a little early to say how quiet they are, but for MT's the noise is not bad at all. Radio barely on and you don't even notice it.
