Sure sounds like you live in Saskatchewan too! You pretty much summed up the roads here..

Damn sharp truck!!!

 

 

I would love to see your CV angles.

 

There is simply no way the angles are safe without dropping the front diff.

Hey, sorry I guess you may have to cut... I thought I had done my homework.. Sorry about that. I don't currently have this lift no, much I am very much wanting it as soon as I can. Damn... I was sure I read that this was a no cut application..

 

Thanks for the update - it does look like the instructions are shared across the 4-6 inch lifts - so I can't tell for sure. Very much want a 4.5 lift myself too!

Those angles are not bad at all, I do not know how that is possible without dropping the front diff, are you positive the frame has not been notched and the front diff dropped?

Hello, what kit are you running? And it's a 4" correct?

To the OP: funny you should mention this, I was looking for the same thing today but it seems everything that I found requires cutting. I considered http://www.roughcountry.com/gm-suspension-lift-kit-291c.html" but think I'm going to go with a Zone 1.5" on top of my 2.5" level. I'm just looking for a better stance and I think it'll be a better, less expensive, and less invasive option over cutting the frame up.

Yes it's a 4 inch and I just got out from under my truck and don't see any cutting I'll go back to my dealer tomorrow and talk to the guy that did it but they told me there was no cutting and there was 3/4 inch spare for different and and I would hope that if they did cut something that they would tell me first or ask me especially when I paid 56,000 for a truck and I didn't want a lift like that I wanted no cutting or fabrication done on my new truck

Was just on Tuff country's website, looks to me like they stopped having to drop the front diff in starting 2014. 07-13 Had to be dropped, new ones don't. Very much interested on your take of how your truck handles and drives with this kit? Thanks again.

I really like that truck. I learned something.. I thought anything over 2.5" usually meant some type of trimming or cutting on the differential. Thats the main reason I only did the leveling kit... Sharp truck!
