Don Thuren is the Man!
I finally have my truck back on the road...and the my entire Thuren package soaking it up!
IT IS NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING!
To summerize...
Rear:
Don's MiniPack
Tuff Country 2.5" block welded to the OEM Axel Perch (Total of 3.5-4" Lift)
Don's King 2.5 Piggybacks
My custom Fabricated Traction Bars
Firestone Airbags (empty normally) on my custom mounts...
Front:
Don's 5" Custom Coils (380 lb/in???? I think...maybe lighter)
Tuff Country 4.5" Lift CA's, Drop Brackets, etc.)
Don's King 2.5 Remotes
Don's Shock Mounts
DSS Steering Brace
OEM Steering Stabilizer
I want the air bumps NOW!
All of this rolling on 37/13.5/17 XAT's.
It is firm...but so controlled. A bone jaring pot hole or speed bump is now just a minor blip.
He can make it happen...even if your truck is "outside" his normal design range. 5" and bad now....lol.

Oh...you will...need to get it washed up...push bar back on...and a couple other things before I unleash the beast.
It is fun to tease a little too!
It does not "look" much different than before from a distance...but it performs different!
Also...big bling factor up close!

How does the back ride now with the mini pack?
And did it lift it any without the block?(Im trying to ditch my superlift 2" block)
Also, can you PM me what the coil springs/mini pack ran you?
Im looking to replace my junky superlift coil springs, and hopefully the minipack will help the back.
