    Yes! I'm thinking I might need an inch and a half in the back with the cap, drawers, and spare (which I don't have on the truck at the moment)... plus no gear. I need to get it on some flat pavement and measure it.

    Copy. I carry stuff on occasion, so i am opting for the 1" lift puck from them as well. Glad to hear that there hasn't been much of a degrading of ride quality. I've been eyeballing the Eibach stage 2 kit, but can't bring myself to spend that kind of money right now on it, when there are plenty of other options out there for pennies on the dollar comparatively.

    Yea, I was waiting for the cap and to get the spare re-mounted to see where I was at. I think I'm also going to add some Timbren after I figure out what I need for a lift.

    Got a couple of BuiltRight Molle panels mounted to the back of the bed to the bed track and mounted extinguisher / first aid kit, added a second phone mount to the Rubigrid, and got the ToughSkins sill protectors installed.

    im still waiting on mine to arrive. Stupid USPS

    On another note, got the cornfed spacers in.

    only difference I’ve noted is over Bigger bumps the spring rate is considerably higher.

    the speed bumps in my neighborhood are a bit more bouncy.
    But other than that, smooth as it was in normal conditions.

    Ok, so I'm feeling this also plus the bigger tires. I'll be up in the North Maine Woods starting on Wednesday. Can't wait to try the new truck/setup.

    I'm still only at 3200 miles on the truck.

    Nice rig! I'll keep an eye out for you during bird season... I live up off 11, north of Ashland.

    Nice... I'm usually hanging out in Zone 4. I go up through 20 mile gate by Pittston Farm. Cheers!
