"Mov'n on up..." Looks better. A little rake now like it should have.
How'd the alignment work out?

Re: finished lift
Looks good. Are you going to put a body lift and bigger tires on?

Re: finished lift
Body lift really isnt that much cash.... and not too hard. I found the hardest part of that was drilling the hitch and step bars to mount higher.
Looks good! If you are thinking about bigger tires, a picture is worth a thousand words.

Re: finished lift
Mine is the same as what's listed in the MML, 33 9.5 15 bfg ats. I really wish I had amid terrain of some type by it just wouldn't be practical for daily driving. Bfg ats suck in mud. I had to have a atv pull me out backwards when i got to a block road on a semi steep hill because my ATs looked like slicks caked with mud. All I did was spin tires. Luckily my buddies king quad got me out.

Re: finished lift
I'm running 30 x 9.5 x 15 Hankook DynaPro ATM. When I'm going to snow or mud I put 10 concrete blocks in the bed, they are 35 lbs. each for 350 lbs total. I put them up against the cab and lock them there with a board across the back. I've never had a slipping problem. As long as I don't gun the motor and break it loose it just creeps along. I'm not into racing off road and tearing things up.

Re: finished lift
Different tread pattern and construction design. Most brands of same size #'s are 1/2 to a full inch taller and wider either way. I have no need for up size as I simply trail around nice and easy. My wheel size and back spacing made it a need to do the Skidz cuts to my wheel wells and ZR5 flares. My wheels spread my stance 5". The rear was really no problem but, the fronts rubbed the back of the well at the bottom, even turning on pavement. The only reason I can see for taller tires is for more underside clearance.

Re: finished lift
I would love a set of km2s. But I can't see paying a grand for tires I would only slap on when needed for safety reasons. But, if could find a set of 33 10.5 15 half used or so mud terrains I'd buy em and some basic rims for weekend fun.
