With the 4" lift, you'll need brake hose relocation brackets, or new longer hoses. Probably need to clearance the front D-shaft CV joint, and also check the rear D-shaft to pinion angle.

Oh snap. Forgot about rear angle. Should be ok tho. I'm going to garage now to finish her up. Post pics in a few hours.

It do look good. Pro Comp kits are sprngs and shocks in front, blocks in back, right?

I'd like to lift mine but wanna do it right. I rode in a Blazer that had all blocks all around and man, it was rough!!!

Ya its front springs and shocks with rear blocks. I like it. Can be a little rough on a city freeway but hey its a truck.
