Replaced the entire lower valance and they offered an optional tube front bar separately that I decided to go with (will have to paint or powder coat) You can get from Kartek or SDHQ or mazulla directly. Big improvement. Couldn’t stand that valance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk are you local to mazulla? if not how bad was shipping on this?
Dirt-Rado Posted October 10, 2018 Posted October 10, 2018 are you local to mazulla? if not how bad was shipping on this?Order from Kartek in Cali or SDHQ in Arizona. Shipping runs around $40 I think but I went straight to Kartek Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I want the SDHQ skid cause it has the cutouts for the tow hooks and comes with the second skid for your front diff/oil pan 1

What tires are you planning on running with that kit? Also, I see that you're in MD. Who is doing the install. In other news, did anyone see the pictures on the Readylift FB page a couple of weeks ago claiming that someone was running the 35x11.50 Ridge Grapplers on stock rims with no rubbing and only their 2.25" kit???

I don’t want to do any trimming. Did that in my last truck and I kinda want to stick to an at and get the mileage out of it and still have some capability. I am in western Maryland and I have a friend who is the mechanic at global truck outfitter he did the install for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Dirt-Rado Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 just ordered the one SDHQ makes with the tow hook cutouts now just to fab a front license plate mount up and wait for it to arrive.Congrats. Or don’t run the front plate cause it takes away a lot of the cosmetic improvements you just paid a fortune for. I haven’t run one in 15yrs Fix it ticks aren’t that bad here in Cali though.

FYI, the front had a TGC 2.5” level in this pic. I eventually went to a 2” level and 1” rear block because I didn’t like the loss of factory ride and decreased range level of travel in the front at 2.5”. The increased clearance I ended up with is exactly what I wanted and I’m happy with the setup with the bigger LTZ stock wheels and tires. Where did you get the rear block? It's really a 2" block to replace the factory block correct?

Rally_18 Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 so I just leveled the truck with 2.25 readylift and I'm starting to looking at wheels and tires for after winter. I'm thinking 285/70/17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W on Method Double Standards 17x8.5 0 offset. i want to run front flaps but I don't want to do any trimming unless its to the flap. Is anyone running anything similar that can get me some input. My second setup choice would be 275/70/18's just want to ditch the 20's need more tire and less wheel. Thanks

ThanksI’ve got the same 2.25” level, running Nitto Ridge Grapplers 285/60/20’s =34”. Barely rubs on the felt liner when backing up on incline. Anything taller will definitely rub fender edge requiring at least a lift. Sent from above
