Christmas in October!

It's going down Saturday morning.


For those who have asked those are 20x10 Moto Metal Daggers with 35" Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Along with the RC lift, I bought Bilstein front shocks for a Laramie. The the spring cups are 1" higher up on the Rebel shocks which I've been told then makes the lift uncompatable for the Rebels as it's supposed to put the CV's in a bind to cause premature wear.

quick question - why rough country and not ready lift?

 

[Tat2GirlAz]

Mike I'm going 6" so its RC or ProComp. Had a RC on my 09 Tundra, put 75,000 miles on that 6" lift and never one issue or problem. On our 17 2500 I went with another manufacturer and it was squeaking like a mouse after 4,000 miles.

Another huge reason, my buddy got it to me for cost which was $971.

And my Amazon order just showed up, so now I got the Laramie front struts.

I'm jealous. I want the 6" lift but don't think it will look good with 34s. I wasn't planning on that big of a lift and tires when I bought the truck so I didn't care that it only had the 3.21 gears. Now I'm worried the 35s would be too much for it. I may be going with a solid 4" lift and 295/60s.

Good luck with the install this weekend!

The wife wanted a 8" lift so she had to settle for a 6". Gotta love a car girl, I got lucky with marrying her.

I have 3.21 gears as well and when I had 35’s it was definitely dragging. When they swapped them out for 34’s I was so thankful felt like a different truck.

Yeah I don't want to kill the power. I've got a catback system and will do the Mopar intake, but I feel the larger tires will still drag it down.

 

[Tat2GirlAz]

Yep, had 35's on the Tundra, it did sap the power. It's all personal prefernce, shes not a speed demon so I'm good there. I have the 3.92's out back along with etorque so I'm not overly that concerned.

You've done the homework, due diligence has been served... can't wait to see the beast revealed! Have fun buddy!

And yes, having a car girl is a blessing! I love my wife more than air, but once and a while, wish "she got it..."
