got to see an rsk today

finaly got to see an rsk lift in person today, went to jethro's house to check out his pop's new toy and low and behold it has an rsk lift on it. the truck looks really good with it.

my only question is how would the truck perform in a true offroad environment? since it uses the stock springs i would question its abilities in articulation and spring travel. has anyone encountered this or do they make official recomendations for the use of the kits?

Superduty's are RSK'ed from the factory.... Did it just have a spring hanger leveling kit maybe?

its lifted, got 315's on it, we'll have to get pics posted, both front and rear spring mounts are replaced, the one up front by the bumper is huge, the spring is almost below the bumper, and the rear hanger is much longer adn i thinkit was adjustable too.


and nope not in trouble, just wanted to make sure i didnt forget to pick up dinner from bigfoot's

dad said he'll either take it on the farm or maybe sometime come up to your place joe. i told him about that hill next to the road. that would be a good spot i think just to see how the suspension does
