SO..... Anyone install a lift kit yet? Pictures Please

[TH3JUICEMAN]

For those w/ a 6" lift and 35's, what is the overall height of your truck (assuming the dorsal fin antenna being the highest point). 

 

Thanks in advance!

I feel you buddy!! I ordered the BDS lift on 1/25. They didn’t even tell me it’s on backorder until this past tues when I was bugging for a tracking #. 

Have you heard any new updates on yours? Nothin on mine yet, BDS says they're finishing new kits daily trying to get them out, so hopefully you and I are close on the list.

Yesss, since you’re shipped I just called for an update and they said mine has shipped as well! It has to ship to the shop first then they’ll ship it to me, they are guessing I’ll have mine around Tuesday next week, finally!

It’s a good day

Awesome! I wanted to install mine myself I just have no proper place to do it. Sad because I just upgraded some tools as well haha. Definitely post some pics when weather clears, I’ll have some pics of mine hopefully Thursday.

Took me freakin 17hrs on the floor. The longest was the cutting and the torquing. Didn’t have that much leverage torquing 250 ft lbs on my back! Lol

Would be sweet if BDS would release kits for the AT4 and TB..........

dang! yeah I know what you mean, I've been in that position many times as well trying to torque something at an odd angle. I just got a new electronic torque wrench in 3/8" and 1/2" drive so I'm anxious to use them haha. I do have custom Icon coilovers and UCA's being made and I'll for sure be installing that myself once they come. I think those are still about 4 weeks out though.

Unfortunately they don't release any info ahead of time for what they are working on, but I'd bet they are working on it. There are tons of people out there with TB/AT4 that want more lift options.

Here’s the only pix I took Sunday after I finished install. Back looks higher but it’s my driveway. It’s pretty leveled.
