Leveling Kit installed!

Thanks to Chris and Barry, the Ready Lift leveling kit was installed on the SD.





After install.


BEFORE install,


Funny thing I have a lot of pics of other members trucks but very few of mine.

I thought long and hard when you suggested that I do this mod to my truck George, because it does sit high in the rear!. And I have made a decision about leveling my truck................ Yep, I'm going to load it with cinder-blocks!

Are you planning on bigger tires George?

I have an ebay leveling kit I bought a while back but haven't put it on the truck yet.
