I really like the new wheels and tires, what size are they?

Nice looks like they cleared without even having to trim the plastic valance. Any kind of lift or just keys turned up some?

No trimming at all which is what I was going for. Lift is the 3” Rough Country kit which is a 2” diff drop, upper control arms w/ joints, shocks w/ brackets, tbar keys, and 2” blocks in the rear. Did it myself in my driveway in a weekend, wasn’t too bad.

I may check that out. The diff drop bolt straight on or any trimming required

Passenger side drop bracket bolts straight on. Driver side required cutting the original mount, grinding flat, painting, and drilling 1/2” hole thru the frame for new bracket, per the instructions. Also had to grind about 1/4” of height off the cooling fins on the diff so that it would clear the frame.
