Well, I may have already done the work, but I suppose I can post pictures of my build so far, and keep this spot updated.

Day I bought it. You can see my "old" red dodge to the right there.

First mod I did was window tint, then line-x liner, then amp research steps, and bakflip f1 cover. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures from each of those steps... But I will take some pics later of each.

Then I did a custom 2" lift/level kit. Did Daystar knockoff spacers and 2" rear blocks.

Clearly that is not all you've done to the truck… Wheres the rest of the build lol… Looks good Steve…

^^ I'm waiting for the rest of it. Seen pics of his truck and man I really like it.

 

[KCCOsteve]

Been trying to, but I'm using phone and last long post got cleared when phone refreshed. Ugh. I'll get it all up here soon.

On the lift getting the lift


After the lift and wheels and tires: 6" Rancho lift with 7000mt shocks, 20x9 +1 Fuel Nutz 1 piece wheels and 35x12.5x20 Toyo Open Country AT2 tires.

For those wanting to see the angles: (Side note, you can see the messed up ball joint boot that the dirty bastards ripped. I still need to try to get them to pay for the replacement)


Close up of wheels and tires:

HID headlights and LED fogs installed. You can also see the AMP steps open at night with the LED courtesy lights.

Prolly a dumb question.. But what lifts the front up, like the block on the springs in the back?

Front is an upper strut spacer, with a welded one piece lower crossmember section, diff drops, and spindles (i think that's what they are called). The back is an add-a-leaf and larger blocks.

So where is that on your picture up there^^?

And your ride is a badass looking rig

 

[KCCOsteve]

Decided to get something to test out the towing, and have some fun with the family!

Which picture? or you mean the spacers?

TOTM Winner!! - but i still haven't been approved in the TOTM club... lol

Time to get the ball joint replaced..

Damaged one


I had bought the MOOG replacements and got them all pressed in and then this::: UGH


Thankfully i was able to find a new control arm the following monday with a new ball joint already pressed in it.


Photo pop after fixing it:

I mean the part that lifts the front up. I don't which part raises it. Clueless:/
