Some Pics With The Lift & New Wheels/Tires

Lift is all done & I was able to get a good shop to do the alignment right. Went to adjustable camber bushings and the tires are nice and straight. Figured I'd post a couple of pics of that progress.

If they got it aligned properly with a 4" lift they did a good job.

Yeah evidently it is pretty hard to find someone that knows how to align these properly w/ getting the camber bushings dialed in correctly. I was lucky because my GF's cousin has a shop right up the road and he is familiar with these suspensions. He said they are a PITA to get dialed in correctly.

Appreciate it man...I see no reason to go any bigger than that. Has a great looking stance with that lift/tire combination.

I’m not much for lifts, mainly because I don’t think many get it right. Sounds like you did.

But, I like yours, I like the stance with the size tires you have!
