That's a close guess, the front is 22" and the back is 20 1/2".

Here's a pic of my truck with a friends, just to give you an idea of the lift on my truck ( the chevy has 16 1/2" lift with 44" boggers, a nice truck).



Oreo, how about put up a pic of your truck to.

Not to sound negative here but what the heck is the reasoning for lifting a truck 15inches+. I'm all for a truck not to be low and dragging on the ground and I prefer my truck to sit high but 15-20 inches higher than stock? You lose all the ability to work, load the bed, can't fit under certain underpasses, you have to re-gear it, whats the point?? I'm not hating on ya guys with lifted trucks, just wondering why you do it?

Actually not jealous, but they do look nice and shiny.

I don't see these being mud trucks, but show trucks, hell yes!

Some people like to have a shiny Mustang to show off, others like to have a big *** truck.

If I didn't need my truck as a work truck, I'd jack it up.


Can I ask one thing though?

Why is the toll box in the back of the truck? lol

I know there can't be tools in it, and it doesn't really look like it fits the style of the truck, I think a roll bar would look pretty cool on it though.
