Phase 1 complete






2.5" Tuff Country leveling kit in front, Sits higher in back now with 35lbs in the airbags (thank goodness).

35-12.50x20 Toyo MT's on 20x9's

Don't know what to do for Phase 2....no way am I doing any sort of chip/programmer on the 6.0, this one is running!!

Probably spray-in liner and some sort of fender flares, I'm thinking. Add a shallow mount subwoofer inside, as well.

I was VERY happy the airbags brought it back up in the rear; had to go a week before they were installed, and I hated the Cali look (high in front).

Did the Airbags make the rear end ride stiffer or make it bouncy? Nice truck!

Ride is stiffer with 35lbs, probably more so with more air. Not bouncy.

Had 2 yds of gravel in the back yesterday (yes, it's even a work truck!) with 70lbs in the bags. Sat pretty level, but I know I was getting close (maybe over) the weight for the tires. Was more bouncy then.
