4.5 Inch ICON Lift - 4 link - Bilstein Shocks, 20x9 BMF Novakanes +0 offset, 37x20x12.50 Nitto Trail Grapplers, Deaver Rear Leaf Mini-Spring Paks, and ICON Dual Stablizer. Bushwacker Pocket flares and AMP Steps soon!

Was unsure I wanted to do this but so glad I did! Huge improvement in overall look and feel. The ride is oh-so-smooth and tracks great. No bump steer or wheel hop. The only contact with the 37's is at the bumper bracket which I will cut and chamfer for clearance.

I like it... Where/what did you do to get the front chrome blacked out?
Thnx! I bought an extra set of horizontals from partsguyed.com, wet sanded the chrome and painted. I'm going to have them re-done with Tuxedo Black when my Bushwacker Flares are painted.

The truck looks awesome this is exactly what I wanted to do to my truck short of maybe a full black grill, but your truck looks great, how does the truck ride with the lift in?

This is what mine looks like with a leveling kit, and was just thinking it needs to be bigger

How hard are they to get on and off? I was thinking about getting mine wrapped in black vinyl.

Very simple....take the screws out of the top of the grill under the hood and it pulls right up. Then they are clipped to the grill. I thought of that too...I would like to see that when you are done.
