I got the lift from D94R on the forums. Its a used kit but everything was in great condition. The long add-a-leaf i bought new off some website and the shackle i bought off jegs.com. I also bought the driveshaft and struts new from another website. Im too lazy to look them up right now! But i got the lift for ALOT less than what i woulda bought it new. thank god!

More pics to come this weekend. Im gonna try to get a little more lift out of the truck, I have one more slot in my shackle that i can drop it to and then ill crank my tbars a bit to where they used to be before i did the lift. I have ALOT left to crank on the Tbars!!! I also have to install my JD traction bars. Ill most certinly take care of all that this weekend.

I also installed my Tbar cover plates back on so i dont have to worry about that anymore.

NExt on the list of things to do is a 3"BL and 35" tires. Any swap out those tbars for some decent coilovers :)

Looks like it is coming along nicely.

If you decide to go with the coilover/SL combo I am sure myself as well as others will be very interested in the comparison.
