    Raised the front end!

    I RAISED IT FINALLY! (sorry for camera phone pic haha)



    it looks damn good! Even too! Its about a 15 min Job....

    I cranked the front end up 1" 1/2..But the only thing is I had to take it to get the front wheels aligned after..But that costed 20$

    Its a little little rougher in the front..But I still like it

    Im getting the tune soon...And an Intake for free on wednesday haha...What else? Besides exhaust? Something that wont void warranty?

    Haha--you should name your truck the fish bowl... But pretty soon, you'll be ridin' dirty! So, cranking the torsion bars helped out? It looks good! Is it that much more of a rough ride? Did you have to shave your bumps stops at all? Exhaust will help for sure. I am not sure if headers will void the warranty or not... If you are concerned about the warranty, just do the exhaust and tune for now and then once the warranty period is up, thear into that thing and get mo powa outta that little 4.8L!

    No need to shave the bump stops when you raise the front.:p

    Some people like to shave them to increase the articulation of the front suspension components. It's only from what I've heard...I think some people do that because they end up bottoming out the front suspension more because they think just because they "lifted" the front that they can jump stuff or climb steeper grades... I don't know...

    Naw Mayne:p haha

    Its actually raising the whole front end....Not just the body...

    What exhaust option should I go with?
    Since its a body lift..Pipes would look kinda retarted hanging down low..
    Mabye just a turn down 50 Series Flowmaster?


    Fish Bowl?
