Hey Ladies and Gents,

I wanted to start this post with the intentions of updating it as we get farther along with pictures of parts, installation and trucks.

Here are a few more pictures from the install today. Raised the front by 1.5".

Just like it would have come from the factory if the bean counters would let them make the bumper that high

Nice looking rig! The owner must be a great guy! Good looking also!

She drove great on the way home. No issues at all!

Looks great! I was under the impression mid perch-esque raise would be a little less than 1.5. Does the truck seem completely level, or still retain any rake?

To me, level.

I am definitely not an expert, but it seems like we are adding more preload to the spring to raise the truck. Are we doing this modification for appearance purposes, or are there other benefits? What are the pros and cons of this change with respect to ride quality?
