Here's final pics of my lift and tires. I'm freakin' done. I can't believe I tried to raise it with a truxx kit and new tires only to change everything less than a few days later. I should have known better.

You can see how tall the truck sits now because I hit a shetland pony and though it's laying down, it shows how tall the truck is.

Here's the pony before I hit him. :D

Looks real nice!! Well done. Looks mean and agressive too! Just the way I like it! If I were to go with a lift, rims and tires, I would do exactly your set up. What are the finished details? lift size? tire and rim sizes? Nice to see you went with the LE side steps.

Look great!! The larger tires fills it out better. If you put a Superchips programmer on it, you won;t even notice the larger diamter tires on there.

So after driving the SUT without the tire on teh back, does the overall vehicle feel smaller/shorter to drive, park, back up?

Okay, okay, it's a shetland/dachshund mix... wierd, I know. :D

It's wierd. It's only a 4" Rancho lift with 37x13.5-20's. The tires are physically 36.5" tall, a little more than I wanted but they look great. The 13.5" wide look even better than the 12.5" wide 35's I had on there.


Turned out SICK! Mark.

Great job:perfect10s:

Thanks....

I agree, I like the larger tires. I'm debating on a superchips programmer or sending the ecm out for tuning to Nelson's Performance. The truck does feel "shorter" to drive with the rear tire missing. I'm still debating if I want the spare. I like the looks of the spare on there but I hate the fact you have to swing the tire out to open the tailgate.

We'll see.

In either case, I'm gonna have to do something. I did come across a supercharger for sale today.

Mark,

You know the depth of customizing I'm into.

This baby looks awsome. Do not do anything more. The white and tire with rim choice just make it sharp as heck.

Congrats, Oh and sorry for the loose of the pony. They are replaceable but, a good H2 is harder to do once you have her like you want her setup.

Doesn't it make you feel like you can run over anything now?

Did you have any last thoughts right before you cut off the mount on the front diff?

I have a hard time convincing myself to doing any mods that can't easily be undone.

Truck looks great, but I want to know its road manners and how it behaves? I need to do something to get my new 24" rims and 38's on the truck...

Looks great Mark. I prefer the 13.50 over the 12.50 as well--seems to give teh truck a completely different stance.

It's really wierd, my '03 had a 6" lift with another 1.5" from the torsion bars.

For some reason, this one with the 4" Rancho seems taller... I don't get it.

Yup, had the same thought when I did my Fabtech kit on the other H2....

All for about 30 seconds. :p

Boss, absolutely... the extra width makes it a perfect width IMO.

I don't like the way it runs though so I ordered a Diablo programmer today.

It'll be here tomorrow, hopefully it'll help.

Yes, I never removed the levelling kit. I kept the keys on and installed the 4" kit. (with 37's)
