Are you gonna throw a zero rate or something in the back to get rid of that saggyness??

Yea maybe one day, I think I will drive it like I stole it for a while, I think that the springs will settle over time. So Adam do you like the look of the 4" (same 32" tires on it for now), are you still thinking 2.5" lift?
 
Get the quick disconnects, i just put it on my truck and its awesome. It makes the truck ride a whole lot better and does not give you the pucker factor in the corners.

Well see i like the idea of having only 32's for the 700R4 and 3.73's so I think I would still want just the 2.5 because Im not a big fan of all that wheel well space. But I think with 33's under their it will look fantastic!! I think the 4" with 33's and 2.5" with 32's look very similar in proportions.

Well I ordered the quick disconnects from ORD on Sunday. Waiting on them to ship them, hopefully I will have them soon.
 
More shots of the 4" lift and 32s, looks good. I want to lift mine but have brand new 32s on it and dont think I need any bigger for the driver it is.
 
Well got my sway bar dis-connect installed, all feels better now. Got some new items on the way to the house, should be here by Tuesday. You all will have to wait and see.

It was super easy (with a cheater bar to break the bolts loose). I also replaced all the rubber on the sway bar while I was at it. It was even easier to install the dis-connects.
 
New 35" tires and rims

Finally able to buy 35x12.50-15 tires and 15x10 wheels.

Nice wheels, They look real good on black, thats good to know:waytogo: I bought them for my burb Cause I thought they'd work with my current paint and look good on black after I paint it some day. Now I know for sure:D
 
Looks great, nice job! Do yo have a pic on the swaybar disconnect? I still have mine bolted up in the stock position with 4" lift. I'm sure that's not the ideal way.

Also, how is the driveline vibration? Feel OK or did you pic some up with the lift?

I will try to get a pic for you in a little while, No extra vibs in the drive line, lucky I guess.

Just pull the pin and raise the bar to the "L" bracket (comes with the kit) that is bolted to the bump stop and put the pin back in and you are ready for some off road'n. I haven't added the "L" bracket yet.
 
Lookin good man! I like those rims and tires. Truck is looking much better with the lift! Although, i may be partial to black K5's with a lift...
