Finally got my 2" bb from rukspeed. Came with 2" shackles, coil spacers, a drop pitarm, and a transfer case drop kit. Was 100 originally got it for 68$ since they took so long. Got up at 6 am this morning and had a friend help me put the lift on. The shackles were the hardest part surprisingly because i have a trailer hitch that was in the way when you tried to pull out the leaf spring bolt. Got it on though and took my fenders off. Also took out my front swaybars completely because the stock links where way to short. It isnt even all that bad of a ride with no fronts. Getting quick discos soon though. Here it is though, please tell me what you think






















Getting 33s soon. hopefully within the next month.

yeah i know. At this height i dont need them, i got way more flex than i expected. In the long future though i plan on getting 6.5" springs up front, and a 4.5" full pack in the back keeping my shackles, and ill upgrade my shocks then

you would have more with longer shocks. you can visibley see that in you last picture. looks maxed out.

you could try this if you dont wanna buy shocks. READ it to under stand (dont just look at pics)

I agree with posjeepxj. Looks like the shocks are maxed. But looks great

just another angle. Love the way it flexes with 31s, but anxious for the 33s
