I have Reflex's on the truck now.



Lift blocks finally got here, guess thanksgiving delayed them. Got them installed this morning and they brought the truck up to level, very happy I decided to go with them as opposed to bags, thanks for the info frank.

AWESOME!
Looks good. did you end up having to grind any? and did you have to use the duel axis camber bushings?
I had some positive camber until the alignment shop installed the bushings.

Oh one more thing. The truck will feel a little different going down the road & take some getting used to.
My front end felt "light" and the first time I towed I was having second thoughts... But you'll get used to it quickly & love the new look.
I've heard a few others say the same.

I've got 60k + miles and 4 years since I leveled my truck & a lot of it was heavy towing. I've had no issues related to the lift & the tires are wearing normal.

Had to get the dual axis camber bushings, and had 4.4* on the drivers and 5* on the passenger of positive camber, waiting on the alignment shop to get it back together now. didn't have to do any grinding though.

the front end did feel "light" on the way up here, but I just assumed it was from the camber that the front end had.
