Lets see the RSK trucks

This is my first time doing a thread like this but I just ordered the 3" RSK kit from Sky Manufacturing so I'm a little excited

It would be great if the guys with the RSK installs can post pics of there trucks, maybe before and after shots

No before shots, but:



Sky Mfg. 3" RSK. My truck is the red headed stepchild that actually sits higher in the front with an RSK instead of being level.
Have you done the D60 swap already, or are you doing it with the RSK?

Rear is all stock on mine. You'll need the taller F350 blocks to be level in theory.

$300 but you have to factor in the cost of the D60, wheels and tires...

For me its

$300 RSK
$1000 D60
$1000 used wheels and tires
$300 Re-gearing (labor done by me)
$500 Other (driveline, steering, rear lift components, shocks...)

Ford dealer might have some laying around, sometimes they have a big box of them they'll give away for cheap or free. A lot of guys pulling 5'ers don't like the tall blocks and have them either removed or replaced with the shorter F250 blocks.

Dougbrown - RSK kits. You'll need to find a D60 front axle, it won't work with the TTB.

$1000 for used wheels/tires? What's wrong with what you have? The tires/wheels in the pic I posted only cost me $210
