Default 6.5" RC Lift

Hey everyone I just finished up installing my 6.5" Rough Country long arm kit and I am excited to see how well it wheels now. This lift took about 15-20 hours to complete so I am glad it's finally done. I'm gonna show a few pictures of the process.




This picture is cutting off the factory control arm brackets.




This is the front end completed.




This is the new driveline, slip yoke eliminator, and skid plate.







That's a before and after of the lift.

Let me know your guys opinion and any questions you have I'll do my best to answer them.

The shocks front and rear are the ones that come with the 6.5" RC lift kit I'm not sure of the dimensions though.
