After seeing all of the badass rigs on here, the Yuke pales in comparison...but for the sake of the thread, here's my bish:

Ford keys front, 1.5" spacers rear, 285 75 Nittos. The stock shocks in the front finally just took a shit after almost a year of running the lift. The front rubs like a sonofabitch at full lock backing up now. I'll be picking up some Bilstien 5100s here soon hopefully...

whats up with it still having the front rake angle to it? I thought the keys would fix that up.

I didn't want to crank the bolts too far without putting new shocks in first, for fear of blowing the stock ones out...but I didn't have the funds to buy the Bilstiens until now, and what do you know, the stockers still blew out lol.

I'll crank it more in a few weeks when I buy the 5100s and get em slapped on.

This thread made me want to lift mine. I was trying to avoid it being the family vehicle but my wife the other day agreed. I won't be able to go too aggressive but at least she's in for it. I'm thinking I'll try to fit close to a 33" tire and go with something between 16-18" wheels.

Thanks Southbar. I was actually looking at pics of your Tahoe earlier thinking that your stance would probably be something I could get away with. I wanted to lift this thing from the beginning but did considering lowering just for the simplicity of it since it came with the 22's when I bought it. The more I thought about it though the more I want to lift it. So when I have the cash flow to do it I'll find someone to buy my wheels/tires and start working towards getting this done. I just wish I could do it now!

Dude I can't wait to see that. I think I am just going to buy a lowering kit and lift kit. That way I can change it whenever I want. That would be nice.

do you remember how much you got out of your cranking? i just bottomed one bolt out tonight so i only got 1/2" after it settled. i better get ford keys quick.

Not exactly, but I bottomed both bolts out and then reversed them 3/4's of a turn. I was able to tighten them maybe five full turns? Mine originally sat very low in the front, and I got probably close to three inches of lift.

The 295's will look great on there, post pics once you get them mounted.

i ordered bilstein shocks and ford keys today, but the tires will be on the truck before the keys are in, probably major rubbage with 1/2" lift only lol.

that would be a terrible platform to build off of, the "quadrasteer" wouldnt handle those kinda tires, plus its a 1500 body.
