stance change up

Raised the back 1 3/4 from factory stance, just to fit taller tires on it so 55-60 isnt my top speed, and few other reasons. but really like the stance,
Any opinions on what to do next or if it looks alright? its been my go get anything, go anywhere truck for bout 2 years and theirs always something new to do on these trucks.

Re: stance change up

Matching rims for one. I lift the front as well. Looks a little high in rear. Taller springs in front.

Re: stance change up

Looks like a truck, waiting to haul a sizeable load. I like it, although I also agree with what LVPhotos has for comments.

Re: stance change up

yeaaa, the rims are an issue, my buddy shot out my front tier few months back so i started running the aluminum rims. the steel rims are 16.5 's which can be a pain to find.

Re: stance change up

What tires are you going to run that would need the rear end lifted for them to clear?
