Thinking about a lift on this. What would 3inch with 33's look like? I'm thinking of something mild. Anybody have pictures of thier rigs with that configuration?

I think 3" with 33"s would look pretty good. I am running about 2" lift with 33"s and looks pretty good and rides decent will get an occasional rub when I am out driving in the mountains though lol.

3inch looks nice, but a 6 inch and 35's and a spring over on the fifth wheel would look badass on such a big truck, myself it'd be 12inch and another truck to tow, you can't build a custom this unique and well and stop short of the full meal deal

I think it looks great, but now it just needs a little rust repair, 12inch suspension lift, 2 inch body lift, 44's on some shiny MT classic II's and a spread in Petersen's. Regarldess, it's cool!

Any body have some pictures from the side of their truck to make my photo easier to photo shop? 33's 35's 3 inch 6 inch. looking for some options. I know it needs something. just can't visualize it yet.
Thanks,
