Re: Custom Built 1 ton 4x4 95% finished

Cool to see someone from West Plains on here....I grew up in Willow Springs. Sweet truck though...hopefully I'll see it on the road sometime when I'm home and in the area.

One word: RIGHT!!!

This pick-up is just plain put together right. And it's a DD on top of it.

I've read the whole thread and can't for the life of me see where the amount of lift was specified. If I'm not missing it somewhere, Bram could you elaborate on how much lift and how it was attained?

Nevermind, found it: 2" Skyjacker softride springs.

Two and a half inch lift, all springs in the front, and four inch, all springs in the rear. The Dana 60 spring perches set higher than the rear, plus you know how a lot of these trucks sat low in the rear to begin with. I wanted to level it out as much as possible.
