Never ever do just a body lift. Period. The only time you add pucks is if your having issues squeezing 35 + skins underneath with your 6 + inch suspension ...

3 reasons.

1. Looks like s***. The truck will look odd with frame/bumper gaps.

2. Acts like s***. Does nothing for ground clearence and will get loosey as time goes on.

3. Looks like s***.


This is why the leveling kits are a great option. If that is not quiet "high" enough, then you need to anti-up the change and go big.

haha great replies about the body. The shop just mentioned that I could... that's why I thought I would ask you guys if there was any reason why I should.

The lift was put on by Best Tire in CDA. They are awesome guys.

You know, I'm not actually sure. I'll have to go take a look at the receipt. I trust the guys at Best Tire, and they always have taken good care of me and my family.

Tire rack has them for 350-400ish I believe, depending on size.

One important note about the newest Km2s is that they seem to do a lot better w/ snow/ice than my other set on my Fj62 (I think they have changed the tread a few times over the last few years).

BETTER PICTURES:

You are making me jealous! I have the same color blue ext cab silvy. I have a RC leveling kit, but after seeing your truck I would love to lift mine to 4 inches! I have a blue and black theme with my truck. Black bakflip hard tonneau cover, and tinted windows. I had always thought black wheels would look great too and now I know they do!

Nice. BDS lift no less. my face , green with envey. One proud looking truck. What part of Idaho ya from. I lived in McCall for about a year . Great part of the world.
