shes a beaut! yeah the rear sags but not too much. I bet if you put belltech 6700 shackles on it (instead of 6400s) it would level it perfectly. 6700s give about 1" of lift while 6400s give about 1 3/4".

and why do you have the sport sticker on one side but not the other ? lol

i think the 6400 would be a better choice. looks like it's sagging more then an inch.

i chose a 3" block rather than an AAL, it sags because i had the Tbars cranked before i got it lifted.

Fabtech spindles have been known to break.

The truck looks good though. If I were you I would put your stock center caps on the new wheels. It cleans up the look a little bit.

For the street perfectly safe!

Very useful stuff though as far as the sag. Lucky me belltech is one of our suppliers so cost plus 10% for meeeeee!

not quite sure what that is, sir
