    Body lift or AAL

    Thanks man, Nice looking truck. You gave me the info I was looking for... What did you pull your 2500 bars from? 2500 HD or LD? 5.7L or something else? Also, are those OE fender flares or aftermarket?

    Body lift or AAL

    Front end squeaking after RCX lift install

    Hi guys, I recently installed an RCX lift on my 98 K1500. I have gone back through and tightened all nuts/ bolts after 500 miles of driving. However, I have an annoying squeak from what seems both the front left and right sides. Just curious if anyone else has experienced this and what was the...
