Here it is (pics)

Well I have had it for 2 weeks now and just recently joined this forum. I wanted to get some pics up by the end of this weekend but it has been raining for the past 2 days straight. However when the rain had let up a little I ran out and snapped a couple pics. I was thinking about leveling it and adding some bigger tires on the stock rims. I also would like to tint the front windows, and put on some type of exhaust just have to search around for a bit.

What size leveling kits are you guys putting on your trucks for those that have done it. One place that I called said they have a 3 inch, but when I measured the wheel wells there was only a two inch difference. So should I go with a 2 inch or a 1.5 inch just incase I have to put a load in the box?

Haven't seen a 1.5". Most go with 2" or 2.5". Don't go with 3". I have a 2.5" and I am a little nose up. If you want to run 33" tires or less I would suggest the 2". Try autospring on ebay. They are the cheapest and about the best quality.

I am very interested in the 2" as level kit but have a few questions. Will this kit actually raise the truck more than 2"s? When I last measured the hieght of teh wheel wells there was only a 2" rake. I do not want the nose to be higher then the rear, and I don't think I want to add a 3"block to the rear beacuse I was not planning on putting 35" tires on my truck. I was only planning on putting something around a 33" tire and did not want to have a huge gap in the wheel wells. Any advise would be appreciated or even pics would help.

Well here is my 2.5"AS. You definitely want the 2". I am in need of a rear lift.



I think my truck is actually level it just appears unlevel. The bed rails are level. The front wheel wells are just taller than the rears.

well I ordered the 2" auto spring level kit this morning. I hope to have it here some time next week. I have a buddy who has a car lift in his shop at his farm so I can not wait to get the kit in and get it installed. I plan on running my stock tires (275/65/18) for a while until I can save up enough to put new ones on. From what I seen in other posts it should not look goofy with the stocks on it. What are some of the tire sizes that you guys have got with your level kit installed? I plan on keeping stock rims.
Thanks
