I told myself when i bought the truck i was just doing a leveling kit and rims/tires thanks diesel place:D


Cognito 7=9"
Rear 6" deavers
Bilstein 5100 at all corners
Cognito HD tie rods
Cogntio pitman idle arm support
Idle pivot assembly
MBRP 5" turbo back painted all black with high temp paint
20x10 Jesse James lawless 8
35x12.50 20 toyo M/T.
PPE Hot+2

I love the way the truck handles and looks now. The only thing i dont like is the way the rear tires are tucked in more than the fronts but some spacers should take care of this just need to figure out what size i need.

I put the lift on my self with the help of a friend it prob taken about 2 days total to finish everything, i must say i do not want to see the underside of my truck for quite sometime

I havent had time to clean it up yet but i took a video of me backing it out of the garage and taking it for the first spin. This video was before i adjusted the torsion bars so the front is about an inch or so low.

In all i would say the price tag was worth it, alot more the just a leveling kit and rims\tires thats for sure:D

I'll post more pictures up when i get time to clean it up.

Let me know what you think.

PPE was on level 5 it was at idle in the garage for a couple mins so i think thats why there was a big cloud of smoke, but at level 5 its blows these 35's off like nothing.

Which means my next purchase will be a suncoast tranny :eek:

Very nice indeed .... I have been driving myself crazy trying to decide between a 4-6" or a 7-9" kit for my new 08' LMM. Looking forward to seeing the pics.
