Leveling kit installation cost?

[Pineywoods]

Pics yet?

I'll get some pics after my 1.5" rear lift is on at the end of the week. The front 2.5" lift ended up actually lifting it 3" so I ended up a tad nose high for my taste. I ordered blocks to pick the rear up just a bit more. It will end up with a 1/2" rake. I put 33" AT's on it Friday and ordered my Magnum RT steps today also.

Ah what the heck...here it is sitting a little nose high right now which is driving my ocd crazy. Other pic is the steps I ordered.

They want $700 because they have a lot of overhead to cover.. my Silverado took about 1.25 hours to do one side and about 30 min to do the other side.. pretty simple install just had to figure it out..

Is that a 33x12.50 or 285/70?

Nope...I ended up going with a 275/60r20. It actually says 33"x 11" on the sidewall too. It's a little narrower but still looks good and is super quiet. It was crazy cheaper than the other sizes. I was out the door for $698. Other sizes step up to a 10 ply and are a lot heavier which kills gas mileage. I don't pull anything real heavy so they fit my needs.

I went with pro comp for the front because it was aluminum spacers not rubber like a lot of cheap leveling kits, and also because you I didn't have to cut any factors studs off.. i just bought some blocks for the back last week from 4 whee parts but I didn't pay attention to what brand they were, haven't put them on yet..

Yes sir. I did a ton of homework and couldn't find a negative review on these tires. At first I was just looking at Toyo and Nitto because that's what I've run in the past but dang they're high! I'm very happy with the ride and lack of road noise with these for being a fairly aggressive a/t. Walmart and Amazon wanted $165 each and the local mom & pop family store here in town ordered them for me for $153 each and had them the next day.

No sir I know alot of guys like them but Im old enough that I grew up loving the sound of V8 and the sound it makes when you put your foot in it. My first MOD will be a good sounding Cat back system

Nice color BTW

I understand... This is my first full size truck without a V8. I love the gas mileage and power but I'm still not used to the sound (or lack of sound) on this ecoboost. Some aftermarket exhaust oughta make that 5.0L sound good.
