How will my K5/truck look with xx" tires on xx" of lift?

Skyjacker 8" EZ ride spring lift all around. ORD Shackles in front. 39.5"x15" TSL's on Eaton 16.5" wheels.
Trimming was necessary to prevent contact at full stuff. Ask me how I know.:wink1: I know their is a lot of trick stuff you can do to set up your rig, but these springs and Bilstein 5100 shocks flex well and it rides great.
P.S. 42's will fit.

wow a wife thats into stepsides and 4 speeds.... if things don't work out between you two make sure you give her my number... ;) :haha:
 
That's pretty dang flexy for 13" of lift!

Jon's right... that truck pictured above with the camper on the bed/trailer is a great idea...

I like the versatility of it...the many combos are awesome.

Truck
Truck w/ camper only
Truck w/ empty trailer
Truck with bed-loaded camper pulling trailer
Truck empty + camper/trailer combo

Very cool...
