NEW Boss 338's - 18's (No grinding)

I just had some 338's installed with ZERO grinding. I did have to use 1/4 inch spacer. However the spacer made the wheels fit even better!!! In fact I'm adding a 1/4 spacer to rear tomorrow.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
