I am thinking about doing it but wanted some advice from anyone who may have done it already.

Thanks.

Yes, I have the Skyjackers and have photos of the finished product. Love them but wish they were black. Easy install. Pull wheels, band springs the springs, disconnect shocks and brake line bracket. Put frame on jacks and lower front end. Simple. Takes a little time and a buddy to help makes it go by fast. A couple beers help too.

Thank you sir.

I have been looking at another brand made by Summit Engineering so I will give skyjackers some serious thought as well.

I would have purchased those but they were out of stock when I was in the market for them.

I used these and they work great. Just need a big jack to lift the frame up high enough and drop the axle down to install. Or you could compress the spring.

I used banding material from our shipping department. 3 bands then jacked the truck up and set the frames on jacks. You have to use muscle but done realtively easily.

What model number are they? I looked on their site but could only find complete suspension lifts. Thanks

how much did the cab raise in comparison to stock? I'm looking to do this, but park in a parking garage.

I put on DR add a leafs. The install was a pain in the azz if you don't disconnect the steering since the suspension wants to torque itself out of allignment...and the DR pieces are of shoddy worksmanship (center pindidn't seat itself properly in the cup without grinding it down, pin was too long...). My two cents.

If you were asking me, about 1-3/4" at Cab Lights. Front bumper is between 2-3/8" to 2-1/2".

Here's a recent shot of mine I also added the rear lights under the tailgate.I used the rough country 8000's and a 2.5 leveling kit.

I installed the Jack-It leveling kit on my early 99 SRW Long bed CC.
Here it is with 305s on it! I miss that truck really! But I love my 03 XLT CC Dually too! LOL /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif
